Larry's  Update

Well it seems as  though I have succeeded in upsetting some more people with some of the decsions I have made over the last couple of weeks. We have a member that works for a construction company, that was highly perturbed over my choice of concrete suppliers for the project in the back of the main building.  I have hired a contractor to do this job and it was his recommendation to use  the company I chose.  I have also offended some other members with my  incentive program that I started to help increase our membership. The program works like this-recruit a new member and get a $10.00 credit on the sweepstakes machines.  I realize that the bartenders may have somewhat of an advantage because of their contact with the customers.  All members have relatives, friends, neighbors that they can recruit.  We have increased the overall membership by between 15 or 20 members.  I'm not sure that any of these members will choose to be more than a card carrying member, but I hope to get some new people to help keep this post afloat.

 Well we have  a good start on the wall.  The first part of the footings have been completed, All of the Rebar installed and 21 yards of concrete placed.  Working on the second part as I speak.  Hope to call for inspection on Thursday and order cement no later than Friday.  Home Depot delivered the block and the rest of the supplies needed to start laying block.  Went to the building dept. today to see what is needed to start the gazebo-once the wall is complete.  Monday and Tuesday was kind of slow at the canteen. Wednesday was a sad day as we attended the funeral services for Jimmy Garcia. A Mass was held on Thursday morning followed by a large motorcycle escort to the San Joaquin National Cemetery in Gustine.  Thursday, as always is a good day at the post with free lunch and Wham-Bam Bingo.  Friday was great day.  The Queen of Hearts draw was envelope #48 containing the 5 of diamonds.  This weeks reward will be $4,800.00. Before the draw we had an awesome prime rib dinner prepared by Doug & Bobbie,  What a job.  After dinner Foolish Pleasure provided the Music. We have started with the NASCAR season with qualifying on Sunday. The points season starts with the Daytona 500 race this Sunday.
