RALLY-4 AMERICAN VETS

TODAY'S VETERANS                                           MAY 3, 2014

Update APRIL 17 2014 we are in need of help from all our friends and remember we will be announcing our car show in May of this year so get ready to join us near the boat launch on the "L" Street ramp and the large acreage next to the ramp!  See you there!

There are numerous veteran organizations that are building around veterans, many are well established like the American Legion and the VFW both are the oldest of all the many dozens of organizations around the world.

As for the American Legion started after WWII ended there are chapters around the world, in Mexico there are 12 chapters and the headquarters are in Puerto Valarta which also has authority over Central and Latin America.

There are two headquarters in Europe, there is one in Paris France that is in charge of the northern part of Europe and there is another headquarters in Athens for southern Europe, then there are other countries that are represented in the Philippines and Australia then there are numerous other countries.

Meanwhile back at the ranch, er America we have literally more great organizations like the Delta Veteran's Group, and East County Veterans Resource Center.  These are veterans serving veterans, so if you know any veterans that need help or would like to connect with other veterans and learn about all the activites going on in Contra Costa County.

We had a poker run in March and April, and more excitement in May as there will be a car show near the piers on "L" street around 2nd street, so to are they having spaghetti feeds and pancake breakfasts, these are fund raising event and they are open to the public, mainly to prove that we veterans are human!.

The other good news is that we are soon planning on being on television and we have come up with numerous names for the show we think "Veterans Showcase" may be the name we will go with, I hope I can get an amen from some of our readers like you!
