Family Night for September on the 17th will
benefit the McPherson County Food Bank.
Get your advance ticket from Legion Post Officers, or in the Post Lounge. Remember, a
full meal of Hamburger, Fries, Drink, and
Dessert is just $5.00 from 5:00pm to 6:30pm.
North Parking Lot - We are currently planning for a dedication ceremony with a dinner
included for October 3rd. More details to follow in next month’s newsletter.
The Mural 12’ x 56’ to be installed on the
North Wall is just about complete. We are
hoping it can be installed by Veterans Day.
We are trying hard to make that happen.
Wednesday Meals - there will be no Wednesday meal in this month.
Legion Baseball - Congratulations to our
baseball teams as they had a great year and
brought home several trophy’s.
September is here again and we always need
to remember the 11th. We lost over 3000
American lives on that day in 2001. We have
lost many more in the wars. Out of respect
and gratitude, we need to take a moment to
remember all of the soldiers that gave their
blood, sweat, and tears serving in our military
to preserve the freedoms that we enjoy today.
Next Post Meeting - September 21st at
7:00pm.
