I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of our members, their families, our friends, and our followers a joyous Holiday season from Post 555, Ely American Legion.  The Ely American Legion experienced a successful year because of the efforts of many.  Thank you all.

The Holiday Season is an excellent time to remember those service members in our Armed Forces who are serving both here in the United States and abroad.  The events of the past week again remind us that there is still much trouble in the world. Without the sacrifices of our service members and their families, the lifestyle we have become accustomed to may cease to exist.  Our thoughts and prayers go to the families of those who have lost loved ones in the pursuit of freedom.

2016 looks to be another great year for the St Quentin Post here in Ely.  Keep checking our website for activities at the legion.  We are already beginning to plan for our 2nd Annual Valentine’s Day dinner and dance.  Seating will be limited.

Wishing you a Happy Holidays regardless of how your family celebrates the season!!

Marv Peters, Post Commander
