Hello all:
This month’s Post dinner will be held on Wednesday, August 13, 2025. Social at 1800 hours and dinner to follow at 1900 hours.
“It is summertime, and the living is easy.” (Giving full credit to George Gershwin, who wrote it 1935 for folk-opera Porgy & Bess). So, given the time of the year our dinner will consist of a delightful Chicken-Ceaser salad, chilled Gazpacho soup, lightly toasted sourdough slices, and a watermelon & feta cheese dessert. The entire meal will be prepared and served by our most capable CIA Seniors, George Nickas & Jay Avila.
There will not be an Auxiliary Board or a Post Board meeting this month. The next Post Board of Directors meeting will be Monday, September 8, 2015.
Post Everlasting. We recently were informed that member Basil Kuzdenki, died in December 2024.
If you are planning to attend this month’s dinner, please email with your RSVP.
