Post Meetings

Post Commander: George G. Wallace, III 

Post 316 meets the 3rd Thursday of every month,[1930 (7:30 PM)  at the Woodstock Community Church in the basement school rooms. Entrance is the rear door to the left.

Since the City of Woodstock has purchased this facility Woodstock Community Church will be moving into their new facility on Rope Mill Rd. perhaps by the end of the year at which time we will hold our General Membership meetings at this new location.We will post notices to advise the membership when these changes actually take place.

 The meeting is held jointly with the American Legion Auxiliary and the Sons of the American Legion. All of our regular schedule meetings are opened to the public and anyone who is interested in learning more about the American Legion is encouraged to attend.

On special occasions we will hold our joint General Membership Meetings at the another facility at a different time so be sure to check Important Dates on our Home Page on a regular basis and watch your email. We'd hate to have you show up at the wrong place and miss out on any events!

Members of the American Legion are..... Veterans Still Serving America!

FLAG RETIREMENT CEREMONY 8/14/2010
Aug 16, 2010 at 08:41 PM

Legionnaires of POST 316:

I would like to add my sincere thanks to ALL OF YOU who participated in Saturday’s event to honor our Nations Flag.

Several last minute obstacles had to be over come; like missing guests and other key participants; but all in all, everything came together like all good plans do. The Cub Scouts and their adult leaders did an outstanding job; I am very proud of them.

I personally would like to thank Bud Leonard for his in-prompt-to ‘fill in speech” for missing the mayor.

Bud, that speech was right on the mark; I don’t think there was a dry eye in the place when you finished.

It really takes a TEAM effort to put on such an event in the short few weeks we had; and as always our Commander George Wallace was the guiding light that led the way!  Thank you George!

Although we did not get any rain (because George ordered it that way); the high humidity did take a toll on more than a few, both young and old alike. George, I hope your back is feeling better very soon!

Otto W.Rust, Jr
Jr.Vice Commander
