VFW Post 392 Canteen/Kitchen Hours
The Post operating hours are Saturday through Thursday, 1100-2200 (except on Cootie Breakfast Sundays, when we open the Canteen at 1000) and Fridays from 1100-2300 remain in place. Gaming is permitted during the time we are open but no later than 0100. Since we close earlier, there is no impact to our operating hours. Should an event be scheduled that runs beyond normal operating hours, the Canteen may not remain open beyond 0100 for any reason.
ALL MEMBERS MUST SHOW A CURRENT AND VALID VFW ID CARD. ALL GUESTS MUST BE SIGNED IN BY THE MEMBER THEY ARE ACCOMPANYING.
Pursuant to our amended Standard Operating Procedures, approved on 12/6/2022, the Bartender/ABC Manager/Gaming Manager has the authority to close the Canteen at any time after 2030 if in his or her opinion insufficient business is being conducted to justify keeping the Canteen open. Further, the gaming machines will be physically turned off each night at closing time and turned back on at opening time the next day. Prior warning will be given to allow players to finish their games, but they must be completed as noted. Any concerns regarding these changes shall be addressed to the Canteen Manager or Quartermaster, as appropriate. We must comply with VA law.
The Kitchen will normally be open for lunch from 1100 until 1400, M-F, and Noon -1700 on Saturdays and Sundays during NFL Season and as otherwise scheduled, unless a lack of staffing causes the Kitchen to be closed. The Dinner menu will be served Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings, and as scheduled on Thursday evenings, unless staffing is not available to cook. We may have to curtail Kitchen hours when staffing isn't available to open the Kitchen or scheduled events require use of the Kitchen (such as holiday meals, Cootie Breakfasts, etc.) Please call the Post at 757-486-5875 to verify if the Kitchen is open if you plan on ordering food from the menu during your visit.

From VFW Post 392 Canteen Manager Shelly Hughes:
VFW Post Members,
Good Day! I wanted to address a few issues we are having with regard to our access control system door locks, electronic key fobs, and their usage. The purpose of the newer system of door locks and key fobs is to protect our members and our employees from unnecessary risks. The system only works if we as a group use it appropriately. Having said that please follow the procedures listed below:
1. Please bring your fob with you when visiting the Post. This saves the bartenders from having to confirm your membership and authorization to use the facility. If guests accompany you, they must be signed in immediately upon arrival.
2. Opening the door(s) and allowing access to our Post is the responsibility of the bartender on duty. Please don't open the door for anyone that doesn't have their fob. Again, this is the responsibility of the bartender on duty.
3. Never allow access to the Post to anyone that you don't personally know. We need to know their reason for wanting access and review photo identification for all individuals that are not known members.
4. Never, under any circumstances, should any exterior access door be propped open without the express permission of the Quartermaster, Canteen Manager, or bartender on duty, and then only for long enough to move deliveries or equipment through the door. Exterior doors will not be left open if unattended.
Violations of this policy will be reported to the House Committee Chairperson for action.
If you need a replacement fob or haven't picked up your fob from the Post, please see the bartender on duty or Quartermaster John Phillips.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Shelly Hughes

THE POST IS OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK AND OPERATING ON A NORMAL SCHEDULE! WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!
We cannot provide support to our Veterans, our families, and our community without your help!
As we continue our journey through 2024, we always need volunteers to help with events, and members to patronize the Canteen. To those who repeatedly assist with Post functions, we thank you all. For those that seldom visit or assist, we cannot stress enough that we need more members, especially our newer members, to participate in Post activities and events. Those members who assist on a regular basis cannot continue do it alone!! Please join us at these wonderful events, including not only the special events each month, but patronizing and supporting your Post Canteen. Whether for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, our Friday Night Shrimp Special and Live Entertainment, Pool, Traditional MOCA Bingo, Texas Hold'em, Trivia, Picnics, Holidays, and weekend or other sporting events, we're always open for all our members and their families and guests. Don't forget, the large and small meeting rooms are also available to rent for special events (discounted for members)! We can only support others if we support ourselves first. And if you have ideas for other events we're not already doing but would be great for our members, please contact any Post Officer or the Canteen Manager and make your suggestions known!!
Please support your Post through volunteering your time and services! We can certainly use all the support we can get. Our new members are highly encouraged to get involved in Post events!
Every hour spent and mile driven benefits our vets and counts towards our annual reporting, so make sure that you're documenting and reporting to the Post any time spent supporting Post or Veteran activities.
