From the Commander


I encourage Chapter members to attend the Chapter’s annual Pearl Harbor commemorative dinner and Holiday social on December 7. By popular demand, it will be held once again at the Citrus National Golf Club, formerly the Southern Woods Golf Club.For those who haven’t attended in past years, the outstanding dinner is followed by an auction of baked goods, candies and crafts primarily made by the Chapter’s ladies.In the spirit of “the more the merrier,” Chapter members are encouraged to bring family and friends as their guests.


I want to thank those Chapter members who participated in the Citrus County Veterans Appreciation Week events.Thanks to your support, our Chapter has excellent public visibility.Particularly dear to my heart is the Veterans in the Classroom (VITC) program because it’s important that we, as veterans, connect with our youths so that they have a better understanding of what a veteran is since they are the future leaders and defenders of our country.


We have delivered two hospital beds and three power wheelchairs along with numerous walkers and shower chairs to veterans in need. If any of you find yourselves in a position where medical equipment is needed, please let me know. If we have it, it is available at no cost.


Several Members were helped before and after our recent hurricanes. Please continue to look out for each other. We are Family.  The ongoing involvement of our members with family and community is a large part of what makes Aaron A Weaver Chapter 776 the success it continues to be. I do not know of another Chapter in the Order that accomplishes what we do. Thank all of you for your ongoing efforts.


Please stay safe and healthy. 


Yours in Patriotism,

Richard Hunt
