American Legion Scuttlebutt

I have emailed Bourbon County schools about the Boys State program, Cadet Law Program and the end-of-year American Legion School (Medals) Awards.

Any boy going into the 12th grade can apply for the Boys State program. Any boy or girl going into the 12th grade or is a graduating senior can apply for the Cadet Law program.

These programs can be positive, life-changing experiences for our students. If you know of any student who may be interested in going to either program, please let me know.

The cost for each student to attend is $350 with the student paying $50. However, if the student is unable to pay their share, Post 25 will cover the cost.

Membership Incentive: Recruit a new Legion member and be entered into a drawing for $500. If the new member’s name is drawn, both the new member and the recruiter win $500. If you have a potential member, let me know. Their membership information must be submitted by the Post 25 Adjutant. If the new member joins online or through the mail, they cannot be entered into the $500 drawing

Nominations of Officers. We will hold nominations of officers for the 2021 – 22 Legion year at our March 1st meeting. If you wish to make  a difference in the American Legion and our community, please consider standing for an office.

If you are interested in holding an office but cannot attend Monday’s meeting, email me and I will nominate you for your desired office.
