FIRST VICE | GEORGE CHRISTENSEN
Greetings Comrades!
What an exciting time to be the First Vice Commander of Post 149. On Saturday March 29th the Commander, the Adjutant, and myself along with a number of volunteers will be meeting at the Post at 1000 to start our “Buddy Check” phone campaign to all our members. This is an effort to reconnect with our 618 members and make sure they are well, and if not, how the Post can assist them. We also want to get members we haven’t seen for a while to start attending meetings and participating in Post activities. If you would like to participate in the phone campaign, show up at the Post on the 29th at 1000, cell phone in hand, and make ten calls to other members. On the 30th the Legion Riders will be hosting a breakfast. Come join us and you can hear the tales of the Chapters recent trip to Tombstone.
We need to come together as Legionnaires and start some fund raising activities. Our youth accounts are empty. We need to raise enough to support Boys/Girls State, the Oratorical contest, and the School medal program. Come help us plan and execute these activities as well as participate in the breakfasts and other special events the post puts on.
Our theme is every member brings in a member. Every member who knows a member who we haven’t seen or heard of for awhile invites that member to a general meeting, or something as simple as joining for a Post breakfast to share some camaraderie.
