Due to a Fort Scott Post 25 baseball game on July 1, July’s general meeting is moved to Tuesday, July 2 at 7 pm. Come to Laroche Field and support your Post 25 baseball team.
The new Legion year begins July 1. You will be receiving renewal notices in the mail. Your support for the American Legion and it’s programs are very important to our Veterans. The American Legion has been instrumental in pushing two congressional bills relating to Agent Orange and Blue Water Navy and the Legion Act to make all Veterans who served since December 7, 1941 eligible to join the American Legion. Without your membership, the American Legion would not have had the legislative clout necessary to have these bills heard in Congress.
Your support for the Fort Scott American Legion baseball team is needed. This is our 1st Legion baseball team in several years and we are literally starting from scratch on equipment. Myra and I will match $1.00 for every $10.00 donation. Our fundraising goal is $3,000. Registration, insurance, baseballs and other incidentals are expensive.
Our goal in Fort Scott is to build an American Legion baseball program based on integrity and develop young men of character for our community. and our nation.
