Spring is here and so is the election of 2022-2023 officers at the April general membership meeting. Please plan to attend.

Volunteers, Bill Conklin and Sue Kutz, are back together in the kitchen to serve Wednesday dinners and man the Friday grill. They’re also serving tacos Tuesday afternoons during the jam sessions. For all the April activities pick up a calendar at the Post or visit the Post website at americanlegionelephantbutte.com.
The ATM is back in operation and the transaction fee is now $3.00.

Thanks to Bob and Fran Acre, the Post will soon have hot water in our restrooms. They generously donated a hot water heater that will be installed as soon as possible. Let’s all stay focused on our mission of serving veterans, their families, and our community. The next General Membership meeting is Saturday, April 16th, 2022 at 10:30 a.m. at the Post.
