MESSAGE FROM THE COMMANDER
American Legion Post 60 Newsletter March 2019
Message from the Commander,
I would like to encourage you to renew your membership online at www.legion.org/renew, it's easy, fast and secure
it saves us both paper work and the price of a stamp. John Straten will have the cards at the meetings if you prefer
to renew then or you can mail them to the address on the renewal notice. Have you considered being a
Paid Up For Life (PUFL) Member? Check it out and see if that works for you.
Post 60 has a few events during the month of March. We encourage you to help and if you cannot help, attend the
events and support our fundraising. It all goes to Veteran causes. We take care of our own.
March Happenings
March 3 Breakfast with the Legion (Eggs, Bacon Sausage, Pancakes, Potatoes, Biscuits, Gravy,
Toast, Coffee, Milk and Orange Juice).
You have to work hard to walk away hungry.
We can always use the help and if you can’t help,
come and support the Post by enjoying breakfast.

We are located at 601 W Pioneer Pkwy Arlington, TX 76010. The ELKS Lodge #2114 has agreed to sponsor our post
at their Lodge. As a non-member of the ELKS, you will need to be signed in as a guest. We will have a member
of the ELKS there to sign you in. On meeting nights, the last Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm, you can sign
yourself in, just enter your name and Post 60. We hope this will enable our post to grow and prosper.
