District Commanders,

Time is running out.   Please pass on to your Posts, they only have until June 1st to reserve rooms for  the Convention.   We have not sold out the Hotel so we will have to release the block early to try and reduce the room block penalty.
 
Deadline for ads is June 8th.   As of today, ads have been very slow coming in.   The proceeds form the ads minus printing costs (as of today we have not received enough ad money to pay for printing the program) help defray the costs for the Commander's and President's reception.   We would appreciate everyone's assistance in getting ads for the program.  For complete information on the Department Convention including ad forms, go to http://txlegion.org/conventions/department-convention/

Wimberley VFW Rodeo July 5-7

 

Please put July 5-7 on your calendars.  We need volunteers to help with the Annual Rodeo at Wimberley VFW.  They need some of our guys to help out with parking, tickets, etc.  When you come to the meeting this Thursday evening, please let us know if you would be willing to help out for one to three days.  The rodeo is on the evenings of Thur., Fri., and Sat.  Thank you very much for any help we can get.  Any American Legion or VFW guys can help.
