Hello Legion Members!
Hello Everyone,
As we begin to feel the seasons change to a warmer climate, post activities begin to warm up as we come together to plan events for the summer months ahead.
It was great to hear The Riders planning rides for this coming season and the great events they have planned at the post. Thank you to The Riders for helping me with our events this past April and with other events at the post coming soon.
The hallway leading upstairs is almost finished and it looks very nice, when you are at the post or tavern you can take a peek at the hallway, as we continue to conduct improvements to our post with the great work from our club company.
We also had a great turn out at the cub scouts Pine Wood Derby event; (if you missed it we are planning on another event and will let you know).
We are having our installation dinner this year; June 7th at 5pm. Hope to see you there.
The teachers of our local elementary schools were very happy to have us visit for our annual teacher’s appreciation event during Valentines week; as this also opened the door for our flag teaching group to get back into some more local elementary schools this coming year.
We hope to see you with us on the float or at the parade on Memorial Day, and then join everyone after the parade at Veterans Memorial Park for the ceremony.
Make sure we celebrate Mother’s Day in May and Father’s Day this June.
I am announcing that I am running for commander again and would be happy to have your support this May 6, 2025; voting time will be 5pm to 7pm.
Encouraging words: A man’s favorite donkey falls into a deep precipice. He can’t pull it out no matter how hard he tries. He therefore decides to bury it alive. Soil is poured onto the donkey from above. The donkey feels the load, shakes it off, and steps on it. More soil is poured. It shakes it off and steps up. The more the load was poured, the higher it rose. By noon, the donkey was grazing in green pastures. After much shaking off (of problems) and stepping up (learning from them), One will graze in
A soldier walks in to a bar and asks the bartender for 10 shots of tequila and one bottle of beer. “Sure son,” says the bartender and serves the drinks, the soldier drinks them all one after the other. “Wow,” says, “the bartender are you going to Kuwait?” “No,” replied the soldier. “Are you going to Afghanistan?” “No.” “Well can you tell me why you drank so fast?” The soldier then says, “Sir I got caught with the major’s daughter, they’re after me and it’s only a matter of time before they catch-up to me. And besides I only have 50 cents in my pocket.”
