Commander’s Corner (October 2022)

Fall is here, which means big plans are brewing for Post 3063! Our big event — the annual Spaghetti Dinner and Fundraiser — is scheduled Oct. 22. See more details in the newsletter and please consider attending, especially if you’re new to the post. It’s a fun way to feel camaraderie and eat good food while raising money for our Veterans Relief Fund. Every year we allocate thousands of dollars from the fund to help everyone from individual veterans in need to nonprofits like the Fisher House.


For November we have more events on the calendar that require us to literally roll up our sleeves and pitch in. For Veterans Day on Nov. 11, we’ll be hosting a blood drive at the post. Bloodworks NW has 34 spots so lets get them filled! That day we’re also planning a community paint day for our mural. It’s going to be a big, bold and bright mural so passersby can’t inadvertently ignore us much longer. Be on the lookout for more details about the mural and other Veterans Day-related events in the November newsletter.


Lastly, you should have recently received a letter from the Post 3063 Auxiliary President, Sean Peat, imploring post members to ask friends and relatives if they would join the auxiliary. They have a handful of motivated members but desperately need more or else it will fold. We want the auxiliary to stay put so please help! Want to know more? Contact Sean at  [email protected].


Yours in comradeship,

Aly Teeter, Commander
