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.

Veteran causes. We need everyone’s help to achieve the goals of the Legion and our Post.

The ELKS Lodge #2114 has agreed to sponsor our post at their Lodge.
As a non-member of the ELKS, you will need to be signed in as a guest.
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,
