Newsletter April 2019

Persian Gulf War

On February 28, 1991, a mere 100 hours after the coalition launched its ground offensive, U.S. Central Command liberated Kuwait and halted offensive operations. With the approval of the UN Security Council, a formal cease-fire took effect on April 11, thus ending the Persian Gulf War.


Easter Luncheon

Spring is here and Easter will be here soon. The Post will have a luncheon for Easter from 1:00 – 5:00PM We will be providing the Ham and scalloped potatoes. We are asking for the people that attend to bring a side dish to share.

Lenten Fish Fry

The Post is still having our Friday fish fry’s until Easter so if you haven’t been to one of our dinner’s yet we hope to see you soon. We can also still use some volunteers!

Spring Clean-up

With Spring here, we would like to do some cleanup outside. We don’t have a date yet but hopefully this month and if not next month for sure in order for our Post to look good for Memorial Day. The branches from our trees and some leaves and a little yard maintenance will not take but a few hours especially if we have a lot of people to help because like I’ve said before many hands make light work.

Dart League

Our Post has a new Dart Board we are starting a Post Dart League in May and there is a sign-up sheet in the Canteen, it will be on Sunday afternoons.

Vietnam Traveling Memorial

Northfield VFW Post 6768 is hosting the Vietnam Traveling Memorial wall on Thursday June 13th thru Sunday June 16th. I know it’s not until June but I just wanted to give people the information now so you can try to make plans to attend this event.

Post Nominations

Next month are the final nominations and voting for the 2019 – 2020 Officers. If you are interested in running for a position please plan on attending the meeting.
