FRA ■NEWS
A lot of members of the Fleet Reserve
Association here on Adak are seemingly
unaware of the fact that their club is
becoming one of the nicest spots on the
island due to the tireless efforts of
CSC Henry S. nSkiw Bunczewski and his
nucleus crew who are remodeling the
f FRA Home into an Adak showplace.
The Home is now open every Saturday
from 6:PM and movies are shown every
other Saturday at 8:00 PM.
The FRA Women*s Auxiliary Thrift
Shop is open every Saturday from 2 to
4 PM. Donations to the Thrift Shop
are accepted at this time and you
could possibly find something useful
that you were just about to send off
to the states for at a much,much lower
price.
A General Assembly Meeting will be
held Wednesday, 14 September at 7:30
PM.
All in all your Fleet Reserve .Ass’n
on Adak offers its members a great deal
more than they might think. If,you are
interested in joining contact George
Higginbotham at 793 or 340 for info.
All Shipmates are invited to come on
down to the Home for an ”inspection” of
the remodeling progress. You are missed.
