Wally Rochford and Howard Dolan together with the rest of the "fellas" have been knocking themselves out working nights, weekends, and every minute they can spare to get the place in shape in time for their grand opening on May 4. They will have their "open house" all day and evening on that day and they hope everyone will stop by and look the place over as they are mighty proud of their work. This is another good example of how much can be accomplished by teamwork. More power to you Legionaires and just keep your news coming. I'm happy to print it anytime.
