REMEMBER THE FLEA MARKET

Once again the Veteran's Affairs Committee will be holding its annual Flea market in the lodge. The date is June 5th and we will begin collecting articles in April. We will not be collecting clothing this year. More information will be forthcoming.

Please save any usable items that you think someone would like to own As they say, "someone's trash may be someone else's treasure".

Last year's flea market was a great success and helped the VAC continue to perform the wonderful acts it has done in the past, for our troops overseas and our veterans at home, in the hospital in Fayetteville and our local assisted living facilities.

Please keep us in mind.
