On August 25th, Post 41 Historian Bob Ferrebee was one of the facilitators at the 96th National Legion Convention in Charlotte, NC. The 100th Anniversary Observance Committee invited him to participate in a workshop to help members get involved in the coming Centennial Celebration of The American Legion. He discussed how he assembled and shared Post 41's centennial profile, and the ways in which an exciting centennial program can build awareness and membership in the Legion.
The workshop and the centennial profiles are early steps in a commemoration program that will build momentum in the coming years, as the Legion nears its 2018-2019 centennial window. The American Legion Centennial Celebration is not only about honoring the past 100 years of our history, but also preparing to continue our legacy of service. Events and activities at posts all around the world will showcase The American Legion "Still Serving America."
