The Oakridge Detachment holds their business meetings on the second Monday of the month at 1900 hours, at the Vets Club in Bernardston, Massachusetts.

Social meetings are generally held on the last Monday of the month, but are currently suspended until further notice.

Service projects include the Overseas Coupon Project. Our members collect grocery coupons from the Sunday newspapers to be sent to military families currently serving on overseas bases. They can use the coupons in their commissaries for up to 6 months past the expiration date. We are currently mailing a box each month to Kadena Air Force Base in Okinawa, Japan. We have mailed over $143,000 worth of coupons so far this year, as of November 15, 2005.

In honor of Memorial Day, we have a group of volunteers who plant flowers and place flags on the gravestones of veterans, in local cemetaries.
