Commander – Al Norton
I must say it has been my honor to serve American Legion Post 44 as Commander from 2014 to 2019.
God Bless all of you for your support.

Congratulations to Gary Burrows for stepping up to the challenge of being our leader. I am confident that Gary will be an excellent Commander!

All officers of this post are important to the success of Post 44. June 15th General Membership meeting the installation of the newly elected officers. All elected officers must be present or they cannot be installed to serve.

Our big event in June will be the Flag Day Ceremony. Everyone please join us at the Dirt Dam reservation site for our Flag Day Ceremony at 9:30am. We will be having hot dogs and hamburgers from 11:00-1:00. $2.00 tickets available for food and limited drinks.

All units & members who have donated to the improvements of the patio area, I thank you very much.
The dedicated volunteer Legionnaires and SAL’s that have been doing all of the labor on all the projects in the last five years have my undying gratitude for many hours of hard labor.

Working together as a family is what it takes to keep us going in a positive direction!
God Bless our Troops, Veterans, families and America!
