I have put through the paperwork to reserve the Necedah Veterans Hall for this years annual meeting. The date is January 21, and i have the meeting time set-up for 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. There is ongoing planning for having pizza brought in for the meeting. There is also food available from the bar at a very limited basis. There will be a full open bar in the front, and the meeting hall is in the back half of the building.
The VFW Hall is located just west of the hwy 21 and 80 intersection in Necedah (the one by the big Kwik Trip. There is a big green tank out in front of the VFW, kinda hard to miss.
