What Makes this Post Unique
What makes our post truly unique is our sale of garlic sausage twice a year. Our post members and auxiliary all come together to produce anywhere from 4000 - 7000 pounds of garlic sausage that we sell to the local community. Our post has also been a very strong member of the local community since its founding and has sponsored many local events throughout the years to include the local Labor Day celebration, dances, parades, and sporting events.
