Commander’s Comments:
I have appointed Past Commander, Steve Mann, for Camp nomination of new Officers’ and he will give a report at our November meeting. Officers will be elected in January. When Past Commander Mann contacts you, please support the Camp by volunteering for an office.
We encourage you to make plans to join us on our float in the December 16 Powhatan Christmas Parade. Dress will be period costume, either military or civilian.
