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.
