AMERICANISM

November 2010

November is Veterans in the Classroom Month (anytime during the month) please go
out to the nearest school and do something with the children. Ask some post
members to go with you and share some stories. Introduce the children to
programs that we have and teach them what Americanism means.
OUR STRENGTH LIES IN UNITY and we will always be UNITED by LOVE for OUR VETERANS and COUNTRY. If you go to the schools give each child a hand held flag for Veterans Day and explain the importance of Veterans Day. Also get the children
involved with our Buddy Poppy programs.
