It's time to update some of the Veteran's Club material that was distributed via the Activity Reference Manual approximately 1 year ago. I guessed this would be the perfect time to begin as we are going to be celebrating Memorial Day on May 26th and many of you will be involving your Veteran's Club.
Would you please email me activities you currently offer or have offered for Veterans living in your facility. I look forward to gathering and distributing new Veteran's Club related ideas to each of the activity teams in the near future.
Remember...
“Our purpose as a (Veteran's) club is to remember, to reconnect, to reminisce, to remind, to represent, to revitalize, to reach out, to recognize and to rejoice in our freedoms!
To remember those who gave the ultimate gift for our freedoms;
To reconnect with those who served to secure and maintain our freedoms;
To reminisce about the time and sacrifices dedicated to preserve our freedoms;
To represent the essence to our freedoms;
To revitalize our spirits and minds through fellowship and education;
To reach out to our Veterans, their spouses, and family members when needed;
To recognize the continued contributions of Veterans to their community;
And to rejoice in our freedoms because Life is Good.”
