Secy. Report: Our Benefit Run is set for July 25th. WB Brett has sent all of us the flyer. PLEASE make as many copies as you need to distribute to local establishments/businesses/friends/groups. All donations are going to the Valor Home of Lorain County. Please check out their website, as it is a great service that they are performing for our homeless Veterans. This is our 1st annual run in memory of our Fallen Brothers, RWB Donnie Alberts and WB John Hooker. Please get involved. We need things for door prizes, raffles, baskets, etc. Let’s help honor our Fallen Brothers and the Veterans of the United States!!
Secy. assured members that our monthly meeting minutes and roster changes/additions/deletions are being done monthly as per requirements. I do not see any issue in sending in our minutes monthly to the OGC!
