Commander’s Comments: We are upon the Labor Day weekend. I hope that everyone enjoyed their summer….We have been busy maintaining our maintenance issues and we replaced the hall windows with sliders so we can ventilate when possible….We have received the handicap signage for the upper deck. All spaces will be handicapped or for individuals with mobility issues. Reminder: DO NOT PARK in the motorcycle parking. This space will revert to handicap parking on 1 November 2023 through 31 March 2024. Please be aware of these changes….Welcome to all our new members and their families. For God & Country, Erich Pfleaidermahnn, Commander

2nd Vice Commander’s Comments: Our Post 572 Family Fun Day was a huge success! This was in no small part due to all those who stepped up and volunteered to work at the event. Thanks go out to the Post Event Committee, the Sons, 572 AL Riders, our Auxiliary, Post members and bartenders. Thank you also to everyone who brought deserts or items to share. I want to especially thank the Auxiliary, the Sons, the AL Riders and the Post for their financial donations, which made having all the games, prizes, ponies, dunk tank, face painter’s, air brush tattoo’s, food and beverages possible….October 8th is the Post Clambake/Steak bake. Get your tickets in the Canteen before we’re sold out. This is Open to the Public and tickets are moving quickly!....Also, in October we will be holding the annual Trunk or Treat but with a significant twist to it this year. If you think the Family Fun Day was great for the kids, you aint seen nothing yet! Watch for details here and our Post Newsletter and on our Facebook page.
Chaplains Corner: I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend. There are two very important dates to remember this month. The first one is Patriot Day on the 11th, which is also National Day of Service and Remembrance. The second is POW/MIA Recognition Day on the 15th, Rosh Hashanah begins on that day also. Several other days to remember: Grandparents Day on the 10th, Constitution and Citizenship Day on the 17th, U.S. Air Force Established on the 18th in 1947, Gold Star Mother’s Day and Yom Kippur begins on the 24th, and for our Fellow Veterans, VFW day is the 29th. I hope to see everyone at the monthly meeting. God’s blessings on everyone. Jim Leggott, Chaplin
