Greeting Everyone,

We are looking for volunteers to help clean the post hall after rentals. The post hall is a major source of income for the post in order to continue operations. The current person cleaning the hall after rentals can no longer provide the service after March 3, 2022.

Therefore, we need volunteers to help out until we can find someone to fill the vacancy.

Please respond by email or text Dave Busher at 860-885-9778 if you can help.
