OFFICER POSITIONS MAY BE AVAILABLE IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THE VFW IS FOR VETS OF ALL WARS! Fees for all new members in the coming year will be paid by the Post. It is hoped that veterans will take advantage of this offer and join the Post in 2016. Post 4073 continues to request names of Veterans and families of Veterans. In order to help our Veterans and those in service now, we need to have the names on hand at the Post. Send the names of those serving now, those who have served in the past and the names and addresses of the families. This includes those who have served in ALL WARS AND CONFLECTS!

Post 4073 has had many improvements in the last two years. We now have new floors on the upper and lower levels. This building is in very good condition. We rent the building for many events. The funds from these rentals go to support all the many services we have for veterans. Activities the VFW Post 4073 is maintaining at present (2016) Assisting any veteran who needs help or whose family needs help. Helping to maintain the National Home for Children of Veterans and assist these young people. This is done by sending funds and other items to the home. Donating clothes and other items to Veterans in the VA Hospital in Battle Creek Maintaining a supply of wheel chairs, walkers and other equipment for Veterans in our area. These items are loaned out as needed. Providing a Color Guard for funeral services and other public events. Taking part in public affairs to keep the area aware of the VFW Organization Encouraging all Veterans to join the VFW and help other Veterans in the area
Activities the VFW Post 473 would like to resume when membership allows. Present programs to school classes concerning the U.S. Flag and the U.S. Government. Present awards to students who achieve knowledge of the Government Provide more picnics, cook outs and other activities for Veterans. Maintain contact with our State and Federal Government in order to represent local Veterans. Post 4073 is still paying the dues for first year vets who join. This is a great deal. We need NEW MEMBERS!
