THE ECONOMICS
OF THE PAST FEW YEARS HAS AFFECTED OUR NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT, AS
WELL AS ALL BUSINESS. THE VFW IS TRYING TO CURB EXPENSES WITH DIMINISHING
INCOME. DUE TO EXPENSE FACTORS, THE WAY WE OPERATE IN TODAY’S ENVIRONMENT NEEDS
TO CHANGE. WE CANNOT CONTINUE TO OFFSET SOME EXPENSES THAT WE HAD WITH A STRONG
ECONOMY. WE HAVE TRIED TO RESOLVE WHAT IS BEST FOR ALL OUR MEMBERS. THE
SATURDAY NIGHT DANCE WILL NOT COMPLETELY STOP BUT WILL BE DOWNSIZED AND DOOR
CHARGES WILL ALSO HAVE TO CHANGED TO $3.00 FOR VFW POST 9927 MEMBERS AND $6.00
FOR ALL NON -MEMBERS.
THESE CHANGES AND DECISIONS DO NOT COME WITHOUT PAIN FOR
OUR VFW POST AND OFFICERS THAT HAVE TO DECIDE WHAT IS BEST FOR VFW 9927.
WE APPRECIATE THE INPUT MEMBERS HAVE SUGGESTED
AND PLAN ON IMPLEMENTING SOME OF THEM. WE WILL SEE HOW THESE CHANGES AFFECT OUR
POST. IF MATTERS IMPROVE OVER 1 ST & 2 ND QUARTERS WE CAN LOOK AT AMENDING
THESE CHANGES AGAIN.
I THANK YOU FOR
YOUR PAST SUPPORT AND HOPE YOU WOULD PLEASE COME TO THE POST ON NON-DANCE NIGHT
FOR YOUR FELLOWSHIP. REMEMBER WE DO HAVE A JUKEBOX WITH PLENTY OF DANCE MUSIC.
YOURS
