Welcome to the Dekalb County, auburn INDIANA
American Legion Post 97
Commanders Corner:
As 2024 came to an end, let’s reflect upon the good things we have done for the Veterans, and the Community. It’s exciting that later this year we will be unveiling the new Dekalb County Veterans Memorial with the City of Auburn. A lot of planning has gone into this project, and I am sure that it will bring a lot of people together.
Thank you to all who donated to Wreaths Across America. We had a great turnout this past year and I am sure that 2025 we be even better. The Department Commander was very pleased with the support that came from Post 97 and the Mighty 4th district.
Now that 2025 is here, is your membership up to date? Because if it’s not, you could be losing out on some of your benefits. If you have any type of insurance through the American Legion and you’re not up to date on your membership. Your benefits will not be valid until your membership is good with the Post. Also, your membership just does not allow you to enter the Post. It also provides support to all of the programs that the American Legion provides.
The Wednesday before Christmas the Treasure Hunt was hit. The new game board will start on January 8th with a Jackpot of $5,000.00. Also, with this being a first drawing, the first person whose ticket has been drawn will receive a bonus of $1,000 plus what is under the game piece. Look forward to seeing you all at the greatest Post in the 4th district and in the Department of Indiana.
