Connecting With our LOCAL VETERANS
At American Legion Post 64, we are deeply committed to fostering a vibrant and diverse community that addresses the unique needs of our local veterans. As veterans ourselves, we understand firsthand the immense importance of connection and support. That’s why we take immense pleasure in presenting a wide range of upcoming events and activities that are specifically designed to engage and uplift our fellow veterans. From informative workshops that provide valuable knowledge to camaraderie-building social gatherings that forge lasting bonds, we offer volunteer opportunities that allow us to give back and create a powerful, positive impact together. Join us today and become an integral part of something truly extraordinary – a community of veterans helping veterans.
A Message from the 2023-2024 Commander
The Commander maintains her own Blog and would like to share some pieces she has written for special occasions about veterans and the American Legion. We thank her for her truly kind words.

Opening Opportunities for Veterans-The American Legion Act (click on this link)
Veterans Helping Veterans means being there for each other. When you are on active duty there is a shorthand to life that simply doesn’t exist in the civilian world. Being able to reach out to someone who has been there – or having them reach out to you provides a comfort that just isn’t there for those who haven’t shared the military experience. What form the assistance takes is based on the assistance needed. It may be physical or financial, or it may be as simple as someone who understands why the tears flow when you see the missing man formation fly over or hear taps.
Being a part of the American Legion, helping to raise money and reach out to those of our brothers and sister who need help brings me back to the warm place that existed when I served, and we were all working together to achieve a shared mission. Joining the American Legion was one of the best decisions I ever made.

Officer’s Focus
All positions at American Legion Post 64, from VSO to Commander, are elected annually in April. These elections provide a wonderful opportunity to give back to our cherished veteran community and play an essential role in shaping the future initiatives and operations of our post. Our dedicated elected officers are the vital core of our organization, ensuring its smooth functioning and guiding its strategic focus. Being a member of the commanding officers is a great honor for veterans and represents the face of our organization. We encourage more members to aspire to or volunteer for positions within our post, as we aim for every member to be part of the support for our focus on our initiative of veterans helping veterans. Together, we can make a difference and continue serving those who have served our nation with valor and dedication. We are more than a committee of just volunteers, we are community of veterans. All veterans of Post 64 and their family members are focused on a common cause, veterans helping veterans.
