		Happy New Year! May our new year be filled with opportunity and new innovative ideas to continue to build on our objectives of serving our Marines, Veterans, their families, and our communities. We are faced with the continued challenges due to the COVID-19 Virus. We need to be willing to change our plans to meet the ever-changing situations required due to this virus. Adapt and overcome! We all need to think outside the box and share what is working in your home area. Sharing information and asking questions help all of us. Laughter and smiles go a long way to keep members working for our goals and objectives. Happy members are more likely attend and participate. Our National Newsletter will have a new section in the coming months for questions. Questions will be referred to the appropriate officer or officers. Each month only five questions will be addressed. Members can send their questions to MCLA-Newsletters@nationalmcla.org Mid-Winter is just around the corner. Have you registered, signed up for the banquet, and booked your hotel reservation? Departments and Units, please submit an ad for the Mid-Winter Program book. All deadlines are February 5, 2021. The Pre-Conference Board meeting will be held at 1;00 P.M. Thursday February 25 in the Greenway room, 4th floor. The agenda for Friday and Saturday is attached to the newsletter, subject to change. Meeting Room will be the Clairmont Room, and the Ship's Store will be in the Montpelier Room, both on the 4th floor. We will need to complete our business by noon Saturday as the League has a special Joint Session scheduled on Saturday afternoon from 1:00 - 3:00 P.M. Marine Mike McNamara is a radio host for ALL MARINE RADIO. He will be speaking on POST Traumatic Winning. Please have your reports ready as scheduled in the agenda, so that we may join the League for this event. If you have items that need to be added to the agenda, please email your requests to me so that they may be included in the final agenda. Friday evening will be an opportunity for fun and fellowship, It is a surprise! Look for details in the Ship's Store. Please keep our members and their families in prayer.
