Happy Holidays

From our post to your home, we, at American Legion Post 2001, extend a warm holiday greeting. May all the festivities and cheer light the way for a celebratory 2020 finish! We have accomplished so much together; from food donations to financial interventions for our Veteran community. Let us remember our resilience as we embrace a new season.
