“We received
word this morning, 26 February 2013,
that our request for a VVA Chapter has been approved by the National
Headquarters. We have been designated as Chapter 1076. We can now move ahead to firmly establish our chapter here in
Henderson.”
Our meetings are on the second Thursday of
every month at 7:00 p.m. Through the kind generosity of the VFW for allowing us
to use their facility we are able to meet at the VFW Basic Post 3848, 401 West
Lake Meade, Henderson, Nevada.
A big thanks to the interim Executive Board
for volunteering to hold a position until our application is approved.
Especially our President Donald Sacco for his tenacity in getting all the names
collected to be able to submit our application. Also, big thanks to the
President of VVA Chapter 17, Las Vegas, Richard Small, who gave us his
expertise during the whole process as well as aiding in filling and filing
forms.

Treasurer-Tony Pinkard, Sgt of Arms-John Scaduto, Chaplin-Ken Veith and

In our April 11th meeting we will be having
our official chapter elections. Not running for their present position Donald
Sacco and Chad Avery. The remaining Executive Officers will be running for
their positions. If you are interested in any of these positions come to the meeting
and submit your ballot.
Currently we

There have been a number of changes at Chapter 1076 since this blog was posted. We should get together with the officers and update this information.
