Monday was a great day for the Post as we received our first Sponsorships for next years Annual Fundraiser Dinner. Two of our sponsors from this year have already stepped up for next year: Visiting Angels stepped up as a Defender of Freedom Sponsor, and O'Brien Construction is a Spirit of Valor Sponsor. Additionally, we added a new sponsor, HFG Trust as a Guardian of Service Sponsor. What an awesome start to our annual event. We are humbled to be supported by such great organizations. That you Visiting Angels, O'Brien Construction, and HFG Trust. Next years event will be held on September 19, 2026 at the Three Rivers Convention Center. Mark your calendar now for another great event!

The event was led by Kevin Veleke, USMC, and was attended by Cpl Carmichael's three sisters, General Jim Mattis (Ret), Tom Mattis, USMC Ret, State Senator Matt Boehnke (USA Ret), Kennewick Mayor and Mayor Pro-Tem, Executive Director of the Columbia Basin Veterans Center, Capt Pickett, USN and MOAA President, Tri-City Young Marines, Kennewick High Air Force JROTC, Hanford High Army JROTC, and Marines from the Yakima Training Center and USMC Recruiting Office. Taps was performed by Vickie Evans.
Always proud to participate in such a meaningful event and proud of Post Participation. Means so much to NEVER Forget.

Saturday, Sept 6, the time has arrived for our annual fundraising dinner. All is calm as we prepare for a great event tonight.
On Friday, we were finalizing some details such as a pickup from Popcorn Northwest and Indulgences Coffee. We also had an unexpected last minute donation from the Girl Scouts of Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho. Yes you guessed it, Girl Scout Cookies that will be available for our Veterans at the end of the Evening.
Fingers crossed for a great event and thanks to an amazing planning team for all of their preparations for this event.
