Giving Back to Our Nation’s Heroes
Chartered in 1920, American Legion Post 97 is committed to serving veterans in Auburn, IN. We honor these brave individuals by providing them with a warm, friendly environment in which they can get together with other former soldiers. Moreover, we hold activities with veterans’ families and organize other social events within the community.
Fellow Members of Post 97,
Thank you for the honor of serving as your next Commander. I am truly grateful for the trust you have placed in me, and I will work hard to keep Post 97 on its path of excellence.
I want to extend my sincere appreciation to Mike Harper for his dedicated service as Commander this past year. Mike, you and your family gave countless hours to strengthen our Post, and we are deeply grateful for your leadership and sacrifice.
To our outgoing and incoming officers, thank you for your commitment, time, and steady support. Your efforts have played a vital role in the continued success of Post 97.
To our families, you are the foundation of our strength. Your support allows us to continue serving veterans, our community, and our nation. As we move forward, let us remain united in our mission and mindful of the men and women who gave so much for our freedom. Their courage, along with the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights, continues to guide us.
May you and your families enjoy a safe and meaningful Fourth of July. God bless you, and God bless America.
Your Commander, Clare Fater.
