Team,
As I mentioned at yesterday's county meeting, on Tuesday I received a call from Steven Minch, Adjutant/FO of Norwood Post 272 and he informed me that the post had voted to make a donation to close the gap in our project, so that cabin would be completely funded. Well with the additional donations from Post 21, 136 and 453 received , I will be mailing in the final payment for the cabin this week. I want to thank everyone again for their support with this project. You make me truly proud to say I am your commander as this County as they say in the trade walks the talk and Hence we will always be the Big "B".
Below is the inscription for the plaque that will hang in the cabin and will be used for our press release. Please let me know if there are any typos or if I left anyone out.
Thanks again,
Bob
