Greetings fellow Legion members, The summer is flying by as usual, so enjoy it while you can. Membership stands at 80, we have lost a couple of members who have moved. If you are interested in becoming a Rider contact me or any of the Officers. I want to thank Maureen " Moe" McNamara for her services as Sunshine coordinator, Moe is stepping down due to her and Mac moving to Florida, best of luck guys. Our Chaplin, Jeannie Ebert will be taking over these duties. The Legion Riders will be donating $300.00 to the VA Crisis Center for their upcoming BBQ, ( Weds. Sept. 10th ) this is our way of thanking them for the outstanding work they do for our community and our Vets. The Riders also painted the large shed next to the Pavilion prior to the clam fest.
