As of Thursday, there were 72 active cases at the facility, including 40 residents and 32 employees.This evening Matt Kempainen, Commander DAV Department of WI and Julie Hert, DAV -WI, State Auxiliary Commander, visited Chapter 51 for their monthly meeting. Chapter 51 is commanded by Danny Robinson while the Auxiliary Unit is run by the capable hands of Therese Robinson. Greg Palo wears dual hats as he is the Chapter Adjutant plus the Department 1st Jr. Vice Commander. Their new meeting site is the Neshkoro Community Center. I was quite impressed with the meeting space plus Unit /Chapter members hosted a small dinner prior to the meeting. This meeting provided a phenomenal opportunity for the exchange of ideas and updates. Both Commanders were extremely impressed and inspired with Chapter & Unit activities. Together, we make a difference in the lives of Veterans.
