May Meeting Reminder

The next Seattle Base meeting is this coming Wednesday, May 15.

We will meet at VFW Post #2995 (4330 148th Ave N.E., Redmond WA 98052). Social hour starts at 6 PM with business meeting at 7PM. Don't forget to review the previous meeting minutes, you can find them here on the blog or on the Seattle Base website, just click the Minutes button on the left.

On the Agenda: We have a lot to do for the Cabela’s and Smokey Point rest area events. We need volunteers to help out for both of these events.

Cabela's: On Saturday May 18, Armed Forces Day, and Sunday May 19 we will set up the Seattle Base float in the Cabela's parking lot. We are hoping to raise some funds for the base through donations from shoppers. We need plenty of volunteers to help man the float on both days. If you would like to help out with this event, please contact Base Commander Doug Abramson or any of the other base officers. For Cabela’s event, all vendors (that’s us) get the employee discount up to 25% as well as free lunch at the store deli. Sounds good to me!
You can find more information about, and directions to, the store here. 

Smokey Point: On June 28 to July 1 we will be at the coffee booth at the southbound Smokey Point rest stop. Be sure to mark the dates on your calendar. Steve Shelton will have sign-up sheets available to pick your spot.

So, if you have not been out to a meeting lately, please come out for sea stories and help us raise some funds for our base.

Thanks for your support and we hope to see you at the meeting.

Doug Abramson
Commander, Seattle Base
