Dart Tourney at the Post
This happened. November 9th but we’ve been unable to post because of computer issues at the Post. It was a very successful event and we hope to see many more.
Thank you Accel Entertainment, Tammy and her team, and Tim Calkins and his team for providing the food.
Come Get Pie-Faced
We’re not really gonna throw a pie in your face….well, probably not. Come, win a pie to take home for Thanksgiving.
Feather Party
If you’ve never been to one, Feather Party’s are fun. Win a Ham or Turkey, maybe even both. Lot’s of chances to win.

October 2024 Calendar
During the General Meeting we will be voting on a proposed change to the Post 1207 Bylaws.
The Paragraph in question is:
Section 5. No elected member of the Executive Committee may also serve as an employee of the Post except by approval of two thirds of the Post Membership Meeting immediately following said election. Although they may draw a stipend or reimbursement for expenditures made on behalf of the Post with the approval of the Post Manager.
Basically one of the members was concerned about perhaps paying an Adjutant. But, if a bartender wants to run for Jr Vice, for example, the Membership needs to know of a potential conflict of interest and this will be accomplished by two-thirds acknowledging the conflict. In such a case the Officer would be expected to recuse himself from any decisions of the Board related to salaries, bonuses, etc.
Don’t forget to check your calendars because we have many exciting events coming up, including our Annual Membership Dinner on October 19th. A FREE Porkchop Dinner for everyone who has paid their 2025 dues by that date.
As always, our Post exists to serve the needs of you, our member. Let us know if there is some way we can help you make the most of your membership.

A Quick Note from the Unit 1207 Auxiliary President
Fish fry will only be held once this month, the 1st Friday October 4th, therefore we will be holding our monthly bake sale that day from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. Donated baked goods would be so appreciated.
I am excited to announce that for our next meeting Tuesday October 8th at 6:00 p.m, we will have three of the girls that we sponsored for girls State coming to speak about their experience please join us and listen to their stories.
We would also like to discuss our Snip Sheet, that is where we donate our monies to, if time is allotted. We need members in attendance to make motions and vote during this process.
We would also like to discuss the possibility of a little alternative to the bake sale during fish fry it would be called “fish fry and a slice of pie.”
Looking ahead to November. The first Saturday November 2nd is the auxiliary’s turn to sponsor the Meat Raffle for the Children’s Christmas Party. We will need volunteers. We are also discussing the possibility of doing poppies during Veterans Day weekend November 8th through November 10th. If you would like to volunteer for poppies please reach out to me.
Our yearly membership dinner will be Saturday October 19th, all paid up 2025 members will receive their dinner for free. Please consider renewing your membership on or before that day to enjoy a fantastic meal.
Continued thankfulness for our members and volunteers, we can’t do what we do for our veterans & families without YOU!!
Much gratitude,
Amy Powers, Auxiliary President
