As commander of American Legion Post 157, in Electric City, I want to publicly thank our communities and all of the veterans who made our annual Memorial Day breakfast such a success!
From this one breakfast, we gathered enough donations to totally fund next year’s scholarship fund, for a local graduating senior! We were also able to gather great donations for our new “Food2Go, Too” program, which will help feed our needy kindergartners through sixth graders on the weekends, next school year, and also the LHRS Scoreboard and Banner fund, not to mention our Isle of Flags fund, as well!
I would like to give special thanks to the following local businesses for their support and donations: Flo’s, Harvest Foods, Ken’s Distributing, and Coulee Ice! Without your support and donations, we would not have had such a successful breakfast!
Our post has been truly blessed by growth, and participation from our members, and also our communities! We look forward to another successful year of yard sales, breakfasts, and contributing to the success of our communities and our veterans! Thank you, all, again!
Cindy Jayne
Commander, American Legion Post 157
