WHO WE ARE

Our General Membership is 329 strong! Our ranks are made up of 149 Army veterans, 62 Navy veterans, 31 Marine veterans, 64 Air Force veterans, 9 Coast Guard veterans and 11 whose service branches are not listed on our membership roster.   Our veterans have served in all conflicts, including four members who served in WWII and our youngest member is a veteran of the Persian Gulf War. 

We hold our membership meetings on the second Saturday of every month at 10:00AM and our Executive Committee meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 10:00AM.  Our meeting notes and by-laws are available to everyone, see Commander Robert Ballew for a copy.

Our projects include:

Jr ROTC

We partner with Lecanto High School and contribute time and funds to assist in the development of our future soldiers. 

American Legion Boys State

We sponsor a deserving high school junior to attend this program.  Boys State is among the most respected and selective educational programs of government instruction for U.S. high school students.  At Boys State, participants learn the rights, privileges and responsibilities of franchised citizens. The training is objective and centers on the structure of city, county and state governments and is operated by students elected to various offices.

Vet Relief

We have a fund to be used for the exclusive of helping a Veteran who has fallen on hard times and is in need of temporary help 

Americanism Programs

We  hold 4 Flag Retirement Ceremonies per year, several Remembrance Ceremonies, (i.e. 09/11, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, D-Day, etc).

National Security Programs

We host the Bloodmobile at our Post every 2 months. In addition to whole blood donations, several of our members opt to donate platelets and double reds.
