March Newsletter
Happy Spring!! We made it through another winter in Minnesota!!
Sadly we lost a dear friend and employee, Mark Crawford passed away on Feb 6th. There will be a Celebration of Life here for him on Saturday, March 7th at 2pm.
I would like to take a moment to let you know how important it is to have the members come in to support the club. For the last 2 years we have had an all you can eat Fish Fry, a Saturday night Rib Dinner, and the last Saturday night being our Steak Fry. We have priced these all at $9.95 which is a very good deal for what we serve. The price we thought would encourage our members to come and support the VFW, unfortunately 99% of the dinners sold are to NON-MEMBERS. We have decided to discontinue the Rib Dinner and for the past few months we have sold very few Steak Dinners. We will have the Steak Dinner in March, in hopes we will have a good turnout otherwise we may have to discontinue that as well. Our thought for these “Special Dinners” was that if at least 20 members and spouses would participate that would be 40 @ $9.95, with drinks would equal may $550 to $600 in revenue for the club. As you may know it is a constant battle to keep the VFW doors open. We would very much appreciate you participation or new ideas.
For the Vets Dinner Tues March 10th we will be serving Tatar Tot Hot Dish, Dinner Roll, and Dessert.
Up Coming Events:
Thanks to all that have served!! We appreciate everything you gave up for us!!
Sincerely,
Kelly
