SQ Bingo – Monday 12.16.2019
Thanks for all who came out this week. Good attendance is all we need to keep this BINGO party going!
We are experimenting with Bar Bingo in the Social Quarters. We are trying to host this most Monday evenings from 6:00-8:00. This is not a traditional paid Bingo game with cash prizes, and it’s not open to the public. But for our members, we make it fun, and we do have prizes we think you’ll like. If members like this, we’ll expand it and make it a regular thing.
The Greatest Game
The Army-Navy football game is a national treasure. Join us in the Social Quarters on Saturday December 14th for this great event. We’ll have a very special treat and party for you to enjoy as you watch the game. Kickoff is 3:00pm. Tailgate dishes to share are appreciated.
Live Music Friday – Spare Partz 12.13.2019
The music and dancing start at 7:30PM in the Social Quarters. Members and their guests may join us FRIDAY for Spare Partz.
Christmas 2019
The Post will be closed on Christmas Day.
Our Social Quarters Christmas Party will be December 21st. Look for the flyers in the Social Quarters, and in upcoming E-blasts.
Be nice to each other.
ALR Shotgun Raffle
The ALR is holding a raffle for a Browning 12 gauge shotgun (OR A $500 CERTIFICATE TO THE RETAILER). Purchase tickets ($5) from any member of the ALR. Drawing will be December 21st. Need not be present to win, but you must pass a background check to receive the gun.
Oratorical Contest
KNOW ANY KIDS WHO COULD USE OVER $20,000.00 IN CASH AND SCHOLARSHIPS?
I’m sure many of you remember earlier this decade when Post 29 was involved in the Legion’s High School Oratorical Scholarship Program. In fact, in 2010 our contestant won the Department Contest and proudly represented us in the National Finals in Indianapolis. Well, we’re past due to send another winner to Indy! So once again this year we’ll participate in “A Constitutional Speech Contest,” offering youth in grades 9 through 12, traditional or home schooled, a chance to grow in poise, speaking ability, leadership skills, and a shot at serious cash and scholarships. The initial contest will be held here at Post 29 on January 18 at 2 p.m. To learn all about the contest, visit www.legion.org, go to the bottom left, “Programs,” and click on “Oratorical.” Then, to learn more, and the specific dates, times and locations, please contact our Oratorical Committee Chair, Roy Lantz, at 770-906-6175, or roy@roylantz.com
Park Street Christmas
