Hight's Horizons
By Roger Hight, Department Adjutant

We are at the time of year where we say thank
you as we end one Legion year and begin a new one.
It is time to thank Post Officers, hospital
volunteers, those who donate money, those who have
served on a board, and those who do whatever needs
done. Don't forget those who work at fish fries,
steak fries, and all Post fundraisers. We should
remember those who volunteer to serve in our
communities and places of worship; those who cut an
older person's grass, shovel their snow, drive them
to medical appointments or just sit and listen.
Over the last four years the District 1st Vice
Commanders have been competing for GOLD!!! The 1st
Vice Commander in each division who has the leading
membership retains the #1 pin. The pins are
handcrafted in 14k gold and cost several hundred
dollars a piece. They are greatly valued as a prize
by those that compete for them. I would like to
thank Pete Bates, a member of SAL Squadron 526 and
owner of Swartz Jewelry in Fairborn, Ohio, for
donating these wonderful #1 pins to our membership
program.
I would also like to thank the volunteers who
unselfishly and humbly let their service, donation,
gifts and kindness be their badge of honor. May God
bless them all.
