Volunteers Everywhere!

Our members have been on a roll this last couple of weeks!
When you walk into the building, the sad muddy patch has been replaced with a beautiful stone garden--take a look:
Our intrepid crew showed up early on a weekend morning and transformed the Post entrance. Many thanks to Kathi Dorfmeister, Shelley Roberts, Mike McCann, Bryan Blankenship,Terry Jarvis and Kelley Russell!
To complete the social hall bar wall renovation, two of our friends from the Fraternal Order of Eagles helped move the water and drain lines for our new ice machine and get the electric in a permanent location (no more tripping hazards!). Brian Kitching, the President of the FOE did the plumbing and Brian Thornton of the FOE did the electric. We didn't manage to capture good photos of these fellows, they moved quickly. Hats off to our volunteers from the Eagles. You can bet Stu Harvey was involved in this as well.
And done:
Meanwhile, our crack team of kitchen volunteers have been cleaning, sorting and organizing the Post kitchen in preparation for an August dinner blitz!
These are exciting times at our Post. Thank you to our members and friends who are volunteering and helping make the Post better than ever!

Taco Tuesday
July/09/2024 02:06 PM Filed in: Post Dinners
Jr. Vice Commander Eddy Lara is doing his proof of concept for Taco Tuesdays at the Post tonight. Targeting a 6pm - 6:30pm serving time, there are 80 beef and 40 chicken tacos available for only $3.00 for beef and $2.00 for chicken! This is not your run of the mill ground beef taco--the fajita meat is specially spiced and secretly sourced!
Canteen Construction Update
July/09/2024 01:33 PM Filed in: Post Improvements
As part of our member approved updates to the social hall and canteen areas, our own CL Roy and his son Logan Roy (our Auxiliary President) came down this morning to get a new pathway set up for our soda lines. The new lines will run above the cabinetry so we can create an opening in the entrance side of the canteen bar without having to trench the concrete. Now that this work is complete we can get our soda service to run new lines in anticipation of the construction. Our Post Jr. Vice Commander Eddie Lara and Judge Advocate Clayton Hosterman moved the freezer yesterday to the opposite side of the ice machine so we now have a clear pathway for the new opening.
Step 1: Assess the work to be done:
Step 2: Create the new opening for the conduit
Step 3: Slide conduit in place
Step 4: Mission accomplished
Eddy and Clay moved the freezer before I could catch them in action yesterday. But here it is anyway:
