While your prepping for your Friday 5:30pm ribs and more plus Wing It Band at 7pm, here's a few pics from the Post 147 Baseball team from Tuesday's game against Herrin.

The Post 147 Legion Baseball team won their game tonight in the bottom of the ninth in what was scheduled to be a 7 inning game. What a game!

The team will play again on Tue. June 16, 5pm at Ray Fosse Park (big diamond) against Herrin. Come out and enjoy Legion Baseball!

A big Friday (June 19) night is ahead. A rib dinner followed by the Wing It band. See details attached!

Today, June 14, 2026 is Flag Day. The American Legion chose this day to retire flags that were faded or worn and turned into our unit to be properly retired.

But first a "THANK YOU" to Rural King in Marion that donated two new barrels in support of this ceremony.

Jeff Roscow provided the process and steps to ensure we were performing this honorable assignment properly. A shout-out as well to other Legion members that stepped up to assist.

While your thinking about the SONS smoking those butts for July 3 and our "Flag Retirement" tomorrow at 2pm; give a thought to coming out and watching Post 147 Baseball. Two games coming up at Fosse Park, both at 5pm on Mon and Tue. The team has won their 1st 6 games!

The rumors are true. The SONS are smoking their butts again! (Ron's words).

Independence Day is just around the corner so get your name on the list before it fills up. Let the SONS do the smoking!

The spaghetti, salad and desserts were outstanding tonight. The SONS were at their best! Sometimes, you think they are enjoying this too much!?

And, as a reminder, on Flag Day, Sunday, June 14 at 2pm, we will hold a flag retirement ceremony. The Post is not open but we will be outside ensuring unserviceable flags are properly retired. Feel free to come out to experience and share this with friends and family.

06/12/2026

It's Friday already. No need to cook, heat up the kitchen or do the dishes. Leave all that fun stuff at home and come to the American Legion for Spaghetti, Salad, Garlic Bread and Desserts and of course a bit of that twisted SONS humor.

Stop by from 5:30 pm to 7pm and you get all this for $10 with 50-50 drawing at 7pm.

What a great deal with the best friends anywhere to share your time !
