I think our American Military History & Antique Show went well this past June 13th and 14th! It was a great way to help promote patriotism and celebrate 250 years of freedom in America !
After learning that many of our members and our speaker have plans with family on the July 4th weekend, I have made the executive decision to cancel our July meeting and wish everyone a Happy Independence Day!
I look forward to seeing everyone again at our August 1st meeting! It will be chopped full of information, reflection on our recent past event, a look forward to our next event “ Fall Muster”, and a great program to top it off!!
Please be safe around all the fireworks 🧨, BBQ Grills, Refreshments, etc. and enjoy the time your family and friends!
May God bless you, your family, our military around the world, and may God continue to bless The United States of America!🇺🇸
