Minot Pre-Rally

The deadline to register for the Minot Pre-Rally has passed.  Remember, the campground changed the deadline from July 10 to June 10th.  A mass email was sent out to everyone with that information, a new flyer, and all our social media sites were updated with that information.  If you did not receive the email, check your email settings, spam folder, etc.

Memorial Day is here. Please remember the reason for the weekend and holiday. A time set a side to remember the men and women in uniform that gave their life for our freedoms. It is not about those currently serving (that is Armed Forces Day) or those that served whether they are still with us or have passed away (that is Veterans Day). It is time to show our respect and gratitude to the families of those that made the ultimate sacrifice and to honor the memory, courage, and honor of those that have fallen.

Tri-Chapter Minot Pre-Rally, August 8-11, 2019

Are Your Receiving the Chapter Emails?

Hello everyone! This is Rev. Richard "Doc" Strait, your FMCA-MVC Alternate National Director and Interim Communications Director. The FMCA-MVC has sent out many emails since last year. Recently we have had many people complain about not receiving emails. This is due to a few reasons. Here are the top five and in no particular order. One, you changed email addresses and did not notify the chapter of your new email address. Two, your email address may have been entered incorrectly into the chapter roster and thus the emails to you from the chapter are bouncing back. Three, the emails are going to your spam folder. Four, you Unsubscribed from our email list or have blocked us. Fifth, the chapter does not have an email address for you. There are other reasons yet those are the top five. If you are NOT receiving emails from the Military & Veterans Chapter and you should be, please send an email to MilitaryVeterans.FMCA@Gmail.com. Provide your first and last name and your FMCA number. I can then look you up on the roster and in the email program and verify your email address. Best regards, Rev. Richard "Doc" Strait, USN Retired FMCA-MVC Alternate National Director & Interim Communications Director.
