Comrades,
VFW Post 3063 is a volunteer-led organization, and to keep it functioning, we need members to step up and serve in leadership roles. Our 2025-2026 officer nominations begin this month, and we are looking for strong leaders to help guide our post into the future.
The following elected positions will be open for nominations at the March and April business meetings:
Commander
As the Commander, you will serve as the face of our post, leading meetings, coordinating activities, and ensuring we continue to fulfill our mission of supporting veterans and our community. You’ll work closely with fellow officers, committees, and members to set priorities, advocate for veterans, and grow our post. This is a team effort, and you won’t do it alone!
Senior Vice Commander
The Sr. Vice Commander is the Commander’s right-hand leader, assisting in running the post and stepping in when the Commander is absent. This role is a great fit for someone who wants to be more involved in post operations and prepare for potential future leadership as Commander. You’ll help oversee membership growth, post events, and member engagement.
Junior Vice Commander
The Jr. Vice Commander plays an important role in supporting post operations, assisting with events, and standing ready to step up when needed. If you’re passionate about youth activities, such as the essay program, this is a great way to make an impact while preparing for greater leadership responsibilities in the future.
Quartermaster
The Quartermaster serves as the post’s financial officer, handling budgets, expenses, and financial reporting. This role ensures that our post remains financially stable, transparent, and compliant with VFW regulations. It’s a critical position for someone with attention to detail and a commitment to keeping our post running smoothly.
3-Year Trustee
Our Trustees provide oversight of post finances, ensuring transparency and accountability. This is a great role for someone who wants to contribute to the post’s success but may not have time for a full-time leadership role. The 3-Year Trustee serves as part of a rotating team, working with other Trustees and the Quartermaster to review financial records and operations.
Why Step Up?
We have made incredible strides in recent years, from strengthening our finances to launching a strategic plan that will guide our future. But for this momentum to continue, we need more members to share the load. Leadership at Post 3063 is about working together as a team, ensuring that the post continues to be a home for veterans today and for generations to come.
If you’re interested in helping shape the future of Post 3063, please talk to me or Quartermaster Joseph Mesa. We’re happy to answer any questions and help find the best role for you.
The strength of our post depends on all of us. Now is the time to step up and serve!
In comradeship,
Commander Alyson Teeter
