ADJUTANT'S CORNER
Message from the Commander
We have had a great start to the 2019 membership year.
July finished with 102 members paid, 35.54% of our 287 member goal.
At this time we have 125 members paid, 43.55% of our 2019 goal.
That leaves us 19 members to meet our first goal of 50% and must be received in Austin by Sept 5th.
We need your support! Everyone can and should be a recruiter!
Please renew your dues, recruit new members and reinstate former members!
Have you considered being a Paid Up For Life (PUFL) Member? Check it out and see if it works for you.
I would like to encourage you to renew your membership online at www.legion.org/renew. ,
it saves us both paper work and the price of a stamp.
I monitor renewals daily and mail out membership cards accordingly. I will also have the cards at the meetings,
If you prefer to renew after the meetings or you can mail them to the address on the renewal.
Thanks to a donation from one of our members, we are raffling 25,000 AA air miles.
The tickets for the raffle have arrived.
ER and Legionnaire John Header will be at the Post/Lodge Friday the 3rd after 6 and all day Saturday
