Frierson-Nichols, Post 8 elected to become a Non-Smoking post effective September 9, 2013. There was much discussion about this decision. After all the discussion, a vote was taken and there was a two to one margin in favor of becoming a non-smoking post. There were some individuals who actually transferred their membership to other nearby posts over this matter; however over a period of time, most have returned to Post 8. Many new members came to the Post as they heard that there was no longer smoking in the Post home. Smoking is allowed on the deck overlooking Lake Silver.
With new paint and the smell of smoke gone, members are proud of the Post and share that information with their friends. It has been a good recruiting tool for this post.
