POST 29 Election Notice for Legion Year 2023/2024

Our annual Post 29 election process will begin on May 4, 2023

Our nomination process will start on May 4th and end in three weeks on Thursday, May 25th at the close of business in the social quarters.  There will be a binder behind the bar in the Social Quarters (ask the bartender for the election book).  Any Post 29 Legion member that wishes to run for any elected Legion office needs to enter their name under the office they wish to run for and must leave a copy of their DD-214 (proof of service) in the binder.  Current officers will not be required to leave proof of service (DD-214) because we already have that on file. 

Once a candidate’s eligibility has been verified,  their name will be entered on the election candidate sheet on the Post bulletin board.  All candidates must have current dues paid.

If only one name is listed for each office when the nominations are closed, an election will not be necessary.  If an election is needed it will be held on Thursday, June 1st, 2023.  Election day details will be determined later.

Any questions, contact Election Committee Chairman

House Rules

The Social Quarters is our hub of activity at Post 29. We enjoy hosting post members and guests, and we appreciate your business.

Since we have many new members, and as a reminder for our regulars, there are House Rules enforced in the Social Quarters.

These rules are posted in the SQ, and we have an entire book of the rules and policies. These are kept in the podium where the Guest Log is displayed. Below the Guest Log, on the lower shelf, is our book of House Rules and other policies. Please read them and familiarize yourself with them.

Here are a couple quick highlights:

  • We have a dress code. It’s posted outside the entrance to the SQ.
  • The SQ is closed to the public. A current ID card is required to enter. Guests may enter with a current member for a limited number of visits.
  • The bartender controls access to the SQ. Only the bartender or a Legion Officer should allow someone without a door card to enter.

If you have any questions, you may ask the SQ Manager Sarah Shirley or Junior Vice Commander Mark Henley. If neither are available, the bartender on duty or any Legion Officer present may assist you.
