MavVet Fair cancelled

- 3/12/2020

In following guidance from UNO’s leadership team, the Office of Military and Veteran Services has decided to cancel this semester’s MavVet Fair. This decision was not made lightly as we understand the connections made through this fair with students can be life altering due to your great work. Despite the cancellation, OMVS has created a digital handout outlining services provided by each vendor to continue to meet our students co-curricular learning outcomes of this event. This was provided to all 1,600 military-affiliated students via the mass email included below.

 

Thank you for your understanding and for your continued support of our military-affiliated students at UNO! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

 

Best regards,

Kirsten

Member News - VFW Post 2704 would like to congratulate Larry Gerlt. At the December Awards Banquet it was announced that Larry was selected by the Post for the 2020 Edward G. Reyes Semper Fidelis Award. Congratulations Larry.

 
Annual Members - If you haven't already renewed your membership, please do. Every year our Post spends hundreds of man-hours on membership renewals. It's important to our Post and the entire VFW organization. That said, time is precious, and the hours spent on membership renewal takes away from hours that could be spent on other service projects helping Veterans in the Omaha area.  Thank you.
 
Our Post History - I'm trying to gather information on our Post history, I've been a member for several years, I know we are the Deml-Kopietz Post but I was never told why.
