WELCOME TO ADRIAN C. FONDSE__RIPON

Teamwork ~ Leadership ~ Commitment
Welcome to the Adrian C. Fondse VFW Post 1051 in Ripon, California. As fellow defenders of freedom, we welcome you into our ranks to become part of our elite group. Our common bond are our battle experiences, our sense of duty and honor, and the comradery of our brother and sister warriors. Your courage and sacrifice have made a difference in preserving and defending world peace. We honor your service despite rank or occupation. Our post is first and foremost a safe, friendly haven for combat veterans, their families and friends. We are a very supportive community - we look out for each other. 
 
If you are looking for a way to continue your selfless service, especially to veterans, or if you are looking for a safe place to relax, we invite you to stop by and visit. You will see the valuable work we do and how much we care about what we do. 
 
Our Post was built and maintained by our VFW and Auxiliary members on a volunteer basis since 1981. Our Esprit de Corps is high because our members make it so. We continue to be a more caring and giving post because veterans like you see the value in what we do everyday and join us to help out! 
 
If you have any questions, please call me at the post: 209-599-6815. Ask for Vince, the post commander.
 
To do some easy research on your own about the the VFW mission and the benefits of joining the VFW, please go through this website for incredible veteran resources and benefits information.
