Message from Aerie President 

Dear Brothers & Sisters, 

I would like to thank Valentine Victor and all the volunteers that did such a great job at the Valentine meal. The food was great, and the food came out so fast. Thanks to all who went to the conference in North Carolina. Our total donations were $37,027.54! 


Thanks to all the members who made this possible. Good luck to all the bowlers going to North Carolina in March.


Remember to bring your Best Chili for the Chili Cook-Off March 23rd.


Renovation to the social room will be happening soon if anyone would like to help. The times and dates will be posted. 


“Shady” Brady Kirby,
Aerie President 


Message from Auxiliary President

Brothers and Sisters, 


First I want to send a huge thank you to every-one who helped out with the Valentine’s Dinner to make it a huge success! A special thanks to Lois & Victor on organizing and cooking! It was a great turnout!


This month we will be having a Chili Cook off on March 23rd! Bring your favorite chili recipe, and we will be selling cups of chili then you can vote on your favorite one! We will also be having a bake sale  going on at the same time. All money will go to the ladies auxiliary. 

Good luck to all of our bowlers going down to the State Bowling Tournament in the Outer Banks next weekend. 

 

Congratulations to our recent Month End Membership winners... January was David Reese and Kimmi Diehl and February was Greg Chilafoux. 


Easter is at the end of this month, March 31st… Remember the reason we celebrate Easter! 


Sincerely,

Becky Mohler,

Auxiliary President


Message from Auxiliary Secretary

Hello my Sisters and Brothers:

 

What a wonderful time we had in the Outer Banks for the conference. There were 160 members from aeries and auxiliaries in the state of Virginia and North Carolina. A total of $924,304.12 was given to charity since the last meeting in November. Wow. That is truly something to be proud of. 


In March we will be having a Chili Cook-Off and Bake Sale. Look for details. And our Aerie Anniversary is coming up in April. That is always a great time. We initiated several members this month. Please welcome new members Kendall Cline and Brooke Hensley. Also welcome back Sherry Martin, a re-enrollee. 


PLEASE: I need to know when you have changed anything… name, address or phone number. Call me, email me or leave info at the bar please. If you do not notify me, then I may not be able to contact you with important information. And that information needs to be complete and correct because the dues are coming due soon. 


THE GRAND AERIE will be pulling information from the MMS system on March 15.

Also many of you joined prior to having emails. I need that information. The best way to get that to me is to send me an email at reesepolly@comcast.net, That way I can be sure I have your email correct.

Also please keep us informed of any illness or family sickness or death by contacting any of the officers or leaving a note at the bar, or by contacting me at the number below. We cannot offer help, visit or do anything to help you if we do not know.


Remember our military and our sick and shut-ins in your prayers. Let’s continue to be “People Helping People”! 


Sincerely,
