The Post is closed until further notice out of concern for the safety and well-being of the Post family, its clientele and the general public during this surge in COVID-19 cases in the general area.
Due to the requirements of the COVID-19 mandates from the Office of Governor Mills dated Oct. 06, 2020, we have had to cancel the band scheduled for the 120 Club banquet on New Year’s Eve. The Banquet planned meal choices will be lobster, steak or chicken with all the fixings either carry-out of eat-in. Please contact the Post with Name (s) and meal choices ASAP.
The Post Membership has authorized adding another cash prize in the drawings of $750.00. Therefore, there will be cash prize drawings of 1 for $1000, 1 for &750, 2 for $500, 2 for $250 and 5 for $100.
The Post is offering the following options to 120 Club members:
- Do nothing and, as long as you are paid up on New Year’s Eve, you can attend the banquet and will be eligible for the cash prize drawings
- Request a refund. You will be refunded the amount you have paid in minus any weekly drawing prizes you may have received. You will not be allowed to attend the Banquet nor be eligible for any of the cash prizes at the banquet
If you choose Option 1, then you need to do nothing other than insure you are paid in full prior to the Banquet.
If you choose Option 2, then you will need to contact the Post and request your refund:

The American Legion
The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow servicemembers and veterans.
Focusing on service to veterans, servicemembers and communities, the Legion evolved from a group of war-weary veterans of World War I into one of the most influential nonprofit groups in the United States. Membership swiftly grew to over 1 million, and local posts sprang up across the country. Today, membership stands at over 2.4 million in 14,000 posts worldwide. The posts are organized into 55 departments: one each for the 50 states, along with the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, France, Mexico and the Philippines.
Over the years, the Legion has influenced considerable social change in America, won hundreds of benefits for veterans and produced many important programs for children and youth. For a chronology of significant dates in Legion history, click here.
