American Legion Post 69
We are now starting the month of May. Boy is the year going by fast! The Post is doing well except for a couple of problems that are going to be taken care of right now. Everyone needs to understand that first and foremost, this is a Veteran’s Post, but it seems that a few people want to come in and treat it like their own little get away. Coming in, being belligerent, and causing trouble. That stops now! When you enter Post 69, or any veteran’s post, we all need to show respect for what it stands for. Lately in our Post, customers come in and almost immediately start being loud, cursing and causing havoc with other customers. From now on, you will be told to leave with no re-entry until you have gone in front of the Executive Board. We are going to start showing respect for all customers! Thank you for understanding this situation. Our membership is doing very well, and we still have a couple of weeks to get 22 more members so that we reach 100%. With everyone's help, it can be done. Don't forget that on May 9 at 11 AM, we will be having our Installation of Officers for the entire Legion Family--Legionnaires, SONs, Auxiliary, and the ALR! Afterward there will be food and entertainment. Until Next Month,
David Stevens Post Commander

Post 69 was fortunate to have a visit from our National Commander Jim Troiola in early 2023. Commander Troiola was kind enough to spend time with our Post leadership, staff and guests providing his insights. Our Post Commander Dee Dee Chapman presented Commander Troiola with some items unique to our Post and our area. We appreciate his visit and welcome him back in the future. Here are some photos of the event:
