MESSAGE FROM THE COMMANDER 

All Legionnaires and Veterans, Sons and Auxiliary  welcome aboard.  We  have made steps moving forwards to continue this remarkable journey to make this post a place to remember.  

2023 has been a busy but an exciting year for the post. We have continued to make progress on the renovations.  We received our club permit, our non-profit status and our entertainment permit. 

We are continuing  to make progress on the outside of the building and the Ron Copple Cantina. The walls in the Cantina are almost finished. We have been repairing the holes in the floor. Bryce Hatfield and Jr. Newton have helped with some of the remaining drain plumbing; big thanks to them. 

With 2024 approaching and with everyone's help, we can only hope we can be as productive as 2023. 

Thanks to everyone for their help   

If you know a Legionnaire or a veteran, spread the word of our plans and accomplishments.  Invite them to come by and visit.
