Legislative issues are brought to members' attention both as announcements in the chapter's newsletters and through discussions or presentations as monthly meetings. Our meeting's purpose is more than just a pleasant luncheon where we meet once a month to renew old friendships, socialize, enjoy a good meal, and participate in a presentation from an interesting guest speaker. Of course, those things are valuable, but our board wants to continue to strengthen the importance of our local chapter, our community, our service members, and their families.
