Members of Post 276 It is hard to believe that summer is coming to an end and soon the leaves will start to turn color. I hope everyone had a great summer and enjoyed plenty of time with family and friends. I’m excited about the amazing turnouts we continue to get during our Friday Dinners. The bands are great, but I also hope you enjoy the food prepared by our volunteers. So, if you haven’t stopped by yet, what are you waiting for???? You will not be disappointed! Join us in the lounge, on 9/4, for our Annual Labor Day Celebration. We will have food, open Jukebox, and Happy Hour Prices. There are plenty of other things happening around our Post. Please take time to review the flyers and calendar in this newsletter to stay informed. You can also visit our website or Facebook page for more information. This is a great way to stay informed on what is happening around the Post. I hope everyone continues to come out and support your Post! We have some great things going on. Starting in September, the Post will start providing food from 4-7 pm in the Lounge (on different days). Please see the Flyer on page 9 for the September Schedule We are working on the October Schedule and will post it to our Website and Facebook page. This month, I’m sharing an article posted on the Legion.org website from our Newly elected National Commander Seehafer. This year, the American Legion’s top priority continues to be – Be the One. For those who have not heard, this is the Legion’s Suicide Prevention initiative. I fully support and stand behind this initiative. I included a copy of the article in this newsletter. Please take some time to read it. As the leaves start to turn and we get closer to the holiday season, please keep an eye out for those veterans who are alone, suffering from depression, or other mental illnesses. Let us love each other, respect each other, and most importantly support each other. For more information visit - Legion.org/betheone or Veterans Crisis Line I look forward to seeing everyone around the post and I thank you for your continued support.
God Bless You all! Marcelo Teixeira Commander, Post 276 |
