Legion Work Day Rescheduled for February 4th

Legionnaires,

Because of the snow we have rescheduled our Work Day at the Legion for Saturday, February 4th at 9:30 am to wax the floors. If you would like to relive those days of running a floor buffer or waxing the floors show up then. If you just want to show up to give morale support that is fine also. See you February 4th.

Also some upcoming dates to remember. We will be presenting colors at the following basketball games:

Saturday, January 28 - Girls Game around 6:50 pm.

Tuesday, February 14 - Boys Game around 6:50 pm.

Any questions regarding this contact Bob Bussian 815-369-4245.

Blog Update

I want to welcome the SAL (Sons of the American Legion) group to the blog. I have given them permission to add posts and as you may notice the previous post tells about the post-Christmas Christmas Party they are hosting for us this coming Sunday at Coach's. I encourage all members that can make it, please come and show your appreciation for the SAL hosting this event.

Also I've added a couple of new features to this blog;
1) I've now got a counter so as to see how many visits we are getting to our blog.
2) I've also added an "Follow by Email" link, which when you enter your email address and then confirm the email sent to you, you will then be notified via email when any new posts are added to the blog.


As always this is your blog and I ask all to comment if you find it useful and informative.

Lena American Legion Blog

Welcome to the Veterans Voice of Lena, IL. I've set this up to be an interactive blog so as to get input from Lena American Legion family members and veterans in the Lena area to see what their interests are. So if you have suggestions for our Sprague-Inman Post 577 or if you just have comments in general about veteran issues this is your blog. Feel free to comment on this site. I do ask that you try and keep your comments positive and not derogatory to our men and women in uniform, our country or to our Legion Post.

As always, if you are a veteran and would like to join our post we would be glad to have you. As it stands we are the LARGEST post in Stephenson County and one of the most active. Feel free to call us at the phone number listed on the website or email us.
