April 2017 Meeting Reminder

The next Seattle Base meeting is this coming Wednesday, April 19, 2017. We will meet at VFW Post #2995 (4330 148th Ave N.E., Redmond WA 98052). Social hour starts at 6PM with business meeting at 7PM.

Seattle base is gearing up for our summertime events, such as the Smokey Point Rest Stop event and Tolling the Boats ceremony. We hope you're looking forward to these events and are thinking about volunteering to help out with one or both events. Base events don't just run themselves, we need our members to step up and help out to make them successful.

Additionally, we are still looking for other activities for 2017. If you have an idea for a social event, activity, or program, please talk with the base officers.

Finally, a quick reminder that nominations for the 2017 National USSVI Awards are due by April 30. Please take a moment to look over the awards and consider nominating a shipmate or a Base for an award for all the good things this shipmate or Base did during 2016. You can review the manual and follow the directions to submit a nominations. Be sure to check out the National USSVI 2017 Awards Manual on the national website (link to manual) and submit your nominations.

We hope to see you at the meeting!
