Legionnaires Helping Legionnaires

This is a letter we received during September 2007 from Post 180 in Highland, Indiana. It was addressed to Jim Tolar, Commander, American Legion Post 119 Gulfport, Mississippi.

Dear Commander Tolar: Enclosed is a check in the amount of $100 from Highland Memorial Post 180. The Post had a jar in the clubroom collecting money for Katrina relief, and finally decided it was time to donate it. Having read the article about your Post in the September American Legion Magazine, we decided to donate the money to Post 119. We know the amount is not large, but a little something to help.

Signed: Sincerely, Danny Cole Commander and Mike Marlow Adjutant

SEPTEMBER 11th 2001 - "9/11"
Remember in your Prayers all those
who died, and continue to suffer from
the tragic events of that terrible day.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Important Notice 1: The Post will be closed on November 22nd, so that all Officers, Staff, and Members can enjoy Thanksgiving Day with their families and friends.

Important Notice 4: Where were you??? We missed you at last month's Steak & Dance Night!!! Comrades, please understand that this is one of only two "Fund Raisers" we have. I know that we are a "Membership Organization", but we are also a "Non-Profit Organization" because of our Veteran & Community services and aid that we give. Do you realize that if every Member would donate just $10 per year to the Post, what it would do for their Post??? I hope to see more attendance at this month's Steak and Dance Night on November 10th. For only $10 you will receive a great Steak and Dance Music!!! Where else in Town can you find that??? See below for more info about our Steak & Dance Nite.

Being that Veterans Day falls on Sunday this year, we have moved the Program up to 2pm so that everyone can attend Church. The Ceremony is to be held on Sunday, Nove3mber 11th in Downtown Gulfport, on 14th Street at the "Old Train Station" where it was held last year. We had a good representation last year, and we hope for more attendance this year.
