MESSAGE FROM THE COMMANDER
I would like to encourage you to renew your membership online at www.legion.org/renew, it's easy, fast and secure;
it saves us both paper work and the price of a stamp. John Straten will have the cards at the meetings
if you prefer to renew then or you can mail them to the address on the renewal notice.
Have you considered being a Paid Up For Life (PUFL) Member? Check it out and see if that works for you.
For Post 60, July will be a slow month. I would like to thank all those who help and attend the events
sponsored by the Post, Auxiliary and Riders. We encourage all who can to do their best to support these causes.
We want to increase the number of events so we can provide more support for Veteran causes.
We need everyone’s help to achieve the goals of the Legion and our Post.

We will have a member of the ELKS there to sign you in.
On meeting nights, the last Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm, you can sign yourself in,
