- Americanism is an unfailing love of country; loyalty to its institutions and ideals; eagerness to defend it against all enemies; undivided allegiance to the flag; and a desire to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and posterity.
- This definition of Americanism was promulgated by veterans organizations at a conference held in Washington in February 1927.
- Membership applications are available in the Post. If you need assistance obtaining a DD214, we can help you complete and apply for those veterans documents.
- Meetings are held at the VFW Post on the second Tuesday of each month. Check-in begins at 6:30 p.m., with the meeting from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. After the meeting, everyone is invited to bring a dish to share with Post members.
- Volunteers are always welcome for events. No experience is necessary—just attend a scheduled event, and members will welcome and instruct you in setup, serving, and cleanup.
