We had a great School of Instruction (because I was leading it) on the 25th. It was good to have a mix of newer members and old hands at the meeting. We tried to cover all the topics succinctly and not drag the school into long drawn out affairs covering one or two pet projects of the members attending. Like I told the folks attending, the School, at this stage of technology, should be more of exposing folks to the important programs that VFW supports such as Voice of Democracy, Teacher of the Year, National Military Services, etc. All the details of these programs can be found at www.vfw.org; www.vfwofwa.org; or www.vfwwadistrict1.org. By the way, if you haven’t registered at vfw.org you should. You can get duplicate membership cards should you lose one, change your address, or sign up for a life membership. In addition, every form, deadline, or program can be found there. So when you get a little time, go exploring.
