A Message From The Commander

Legion family,

COVID is rearing its ugly head again. If you have been exposed to someone who has tested positive, please get tested before coming to the post, or you are not feeling well, please stay home until you are better.

The health and safety of our members and staff are of the utmost importance, so please keep that in mind and help prevent the spread. If you test positive and have recently been to the post, please let us know as soon as possible so we can let those who may have been exposed know to help keep it from spreading.

We don't want to have to close our doors or modify our hours, but if the virus spreads through the membership or to our bartenders, we will not have a choice.

Thank you all for your understanding.

Yours in service,

Michael Sherman

A Message From The Commander

Post 152 Family,

Due to the ever increasing cost of the products we serve, we have made the difficult decision to increase the cost of all alcohol products we serve by 50 cents effective September 1st.

Also, we will be closing at 7pm on Monday July 25th for maintenance. We will reopen at our normal time of noon Tuesday.

Thank you for your understanding.

Yours in service,

Mike Sherman
