The American Legion Post 109 dining room will reopen on September 7th. A wide array of meals, as well as bingo, are held there. The public is welcome to enjoy the reasonably priced, delicious meals served in the dining room, along with some special events held in the Post 109 lounge. Our monthly calendar appears online at Post109.org and can be obtained in the dining room or lounge. We highly appreciate the patronage of community members. Proceeds from all events translate to the post 109 family being able to contribute increasing amounts to American Veterans, children and youth, and our rapidly growing community.
Unit 109 Junior Girls are excited about their new event, “Family First,” held every first Friday of the month beginning Oct 4th at 6 PM. They invite you to bring your family for an affordable night of fun. People of all ages are welcome; there will be activities for the whole family to enjoy. A parent or legal guardian must be present at all times. Concessions will be available at each event for a small fee.
The proceeds of food sales go towards expenses incurred when the Unit 109 Junior Girls attend the American Legion Auxiliary state convention. October will be spooky crafts! Concessions will include pizza, caramel apples, apple cider and more. Reservations greatly appreciated in order that they have ample food and supplies, please RSVP to 520-265-2970.
A bill has been signed into law which opens American Legion Family membership to many more veterans and certain family members of same by extending the eligibility dates of above to include all those who have honorably served out beloved America since December 7, 1941. Applications to join our dedicated patriotic organization may be obtained in the lounge or dining room.
Many thanks to “The Vail Voice” for your ongoing support and a wide array of information offered to our organization and community.
