Prineville’s American Legion post inviting new members

The American Legion Post 29, in Prineville, wants veterans to know they can become members and benefit from what the organization has to offer. Nationally, the American Legion is the largest and most influential organization of U.S. veterans. Today, it accounts for 1.4 million members who support their communities in nearly 12,000 posts worldwide. Since its 1919 founding, the American Legion has been a staunch advocate for veterans, military members, their families and the communities in which they reside. “We would like you to join the next post meeting (every first Thursday of the month) to meet other members and learn about what we are doing within the post and community,” said Post 29 Commander Alan Alderman. “I look forward to seeing you, and please reach out if you need anything or have questions.” Each year, Post 29 and Unit 29 Auxiliary host a Christmas Auction. This auction raises money for veteran families and local families during Christmas and throughout the year.
