Published on by corvettes

Greetings,

   The April 2024 Post 25 Calendar is HERE.

Here is Commander Fred Pierce’s April Message…

Greetings Post 25 Family,

Well, that nasty freezing winter is finally behind us! (a little Northern humor)

Many of our Northern friends are heading back, let’s wish them a safe journey to their destinations.

The Sons of the American Legion and Legion members have been doing “Yard Parties”, which is cleaning up around the Post and it looks great! Thank you to Jake Gordon and Scott Teeters for heading this up.

The Luau was a HUGE success! A BIG THANKS to the Auxiliary for making this a great fun night.

The Kitchen is open from 1 PM to 7 PM. EXCEPT for Friday night’s Fried Fish and Prime Rib, we are now serving the dinner specials all day, along with the regular Cafe menu. Plus Peg will also be adding some new, light-bite choices to the menu, so come check out the lighted board by the Mess Hall Kitchen window to see what’s new.

April Events
April 6 & 20, 2024 – TJ Karaoke will be at Post 25 with open mics from 5-8 PM.

April 8, 2024 – This is Election Day for Post 25 Officers. It is extremely important that we all vote to keep Post 25 out front. We need the right people in the right positions. Voting is from 12 Noon to 6 PM. Please bring your current 2024 Legion card.

April 13, 2024 – Auxiliary Sock Hop! Gals, put your poodle skirts and tight white t-shirts on, and come have a good time! Memories Dance Party Band will be providing the Golden Oldies music!

Well, that’s all the news I have for now. Hope this finds all of you well.

Post 25 Yard Party! This Thursday! 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM

The Beautification of Post 25 Continues!

Greetings,
   While the weather has been cool, we have been working on sprucing up the outside of Post 25. The outside grill still needs electrical work and the installation of exhaust fans. We only have a few more easy projects we’d like to wrap up before it gets HOT.

Post 25 Yard Party! This Thursday! 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM

Here’s what we’d like to accomplish this
Thursday, March 28, starting at 8:30 AM.

* Stack the aluminum sheets and weed wack

* Move the Dunker behind one of the storage sheds

* Remove and dismantle the broken gate

* Misc. stuff removed from around the grounds

* Weed and spray around the perimeter of the building

* More trimming around the outer perimeter of the property

* Trimming around the wood pile

Bring your work gloves and any yard tools you think might help. Commander Fred will supply the Dunkin Donuts and Coffee!

Perhaps, after we complete our outside beautification project, we can have a Bond Fire Party out back!

See you at Post 25!

The Next ROADKILL Game Will Be
Saturday, April 20 from 3-to-5 PM
Big Fun! Win Meats!
BE THERE!
