January Newsletter 2026 🇺🇸

Happy New Year! Welcome to 2026 and the mounting excitement for our new location. If you haven’t visited the construction site to see the progress firsthand, it can be viewed on this website under the “Building Updates” tab. It may appear nothing is happening when you drive by, but upon closer inspection you will notice contractors are now working on the interior of the building. Site visits are welcome, but hard hats are required if you walk onto the site. We have VFW Post 7012 hard hats available to borrow in the canteen.

Other announcements for January:

🎟️Beginning January 6, the Canteen will hold a weekly 50/50 raffle. Tickets are 1 for $2.00, 3 for $5.00, or 7 for $10.00. Drawing will take place on Saturdays at closing time, and the winner will be notified. *Need not be present to win.
