It is a brief but meaningful service to honor those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country, for all of us! After the parade, which begins at 11:30, festivities will continue at the American Legion grounds. There will be a band, clowns for the kids and refreshments for all.

Department Convention

The Department of NJ Convention begins on Thursday, June 7th down in Wildwood. Anyone wishing to be a delegate to the convention should contact their Commander or President. Last we heard, there were still rooms available at the Imperial 500 where many “170 Family Members” will be staying. The Post will have its Brandy Alexander Cocktail Party on Friday afternoon, and on Friday evening, right across the street at the VIP will be the Bergen County party. On Saturday, we’ll be marching in the parade, details later....
