Update for June 2013
First I would like to thank everyone that came out for the Poppy Drive. There will be a full report at the meeting. I would also like thank Phil for great Memorial Day ceremony.
We will need a Color Guard for June the 15th for Flag Day at the E.L.K.S.; I will have more info as we go along. Those who I spoke to please get back with me and confirm. We do need everyone, so if you can make let me know. Also, we need a Color Guard in July for the Cranberry Township s. I do not have info on this yet.
Reminder: the June meeting will be the 20th at the E.L.K.S. lower level 7:30, but if you can get there early to help us move things around the storage space, it would be a great help. Visit our meeting section for more information.
As you can see, the new website is up and running. Check us out there, on Facebook, and on Twitter.

Poppy Drive Request
We need your help!
We are asking for help with all time slots. At times we are down to just one or two people per door. Even if you can stop by for just 30 minutes or an hour, it will give one of our regular attendees the time to take a break. Thank you for your help during this last push of fundraising for the spring.
