Word from The Aerie President

 

Spring Zone

Hard to believe February is almost over – 2023 is flying by! The calendar doesn't lie, and we're heading into March. You know what that means – no, not March Madness! It means the Spring Zone Conference is right around the corner. We will host Aerie and Auxiliary members from all around the central zone, including officials from the State and the Grand Aerie, on April 14-16. The planning committee has arranged for meals, entertainment, lodging, and transportation, but without enough people to assist, all of the planning and preparation can easily go sideways. Please consider signing up on one of volunteer sheets and pitching in. Our club needs you!

P.S. The opening round of the NCAA Tournament is the most exciting 2 days in sports! Wonder who this year's Cinderella will be?

Fraternally, 

Ranzy “Big Chuck” Brown

Word from Madam President Melissa Birman

March is almost upon us, and with the higher than normal temperatures, it seems like Spring is just around the corner. And yet, with the rebirth of Nature that brings, a lot of us are still deep in worry. Spy balloons over our country, toxic spills in our state, a continuing war in Eastern Europe, an open southern border, a seemingly two-tier justice system in the federal government, and a strange lethargic indifference bordering on incompetence in our executive branch.

Still, with spring comes hope. Lent is here, and Easter will bring a renewed vigor to our souls.

Again, let us remember that our strength will come from within us when we appreciate, believe in, and speak out for the liberty our founding fathers introduced for us. We are a free nation. As a people, we will succeed when we come together for the good of all of us, especially now at this critical time, as a community, as a state―as a NATION. Let us embrace our Americanism

American Legion Reynoldsburg Post 798 continues supporting our community, especially for our veterans and their families. If you are a veteran in need, contact us, and we'll try to assist you. And Post 798 will as always continue to be there for our our Aerie 3261 brothers and sisters. 

Remember, at this point in the year, many of us get frustrated, and for some, that too easily turns to gloom.

Let us remember what St. Francis of Assisi once wrote: “A single sunbeam is enough to drive away many shadows.”

May God’s mercy be upon us and upon the United States.
