Post 22 hosted the 2026 South Dakota American Legion (SDAL) Golf Tournament on September 26th at Meadowbrook Golf Course in Rapid City SD. The course was beautiful, and the weather perfect. The organizers of this event were Post 22 Adjutant Jackie Miller and SDAL Athletic Commission Chairman Lyle Tolsma (past Post 22 Commander). There were 18 teams, a barrel of fun, lots of prizes, and an awards banquet following the event. Thank you to all the community sponsors, and volunteers! A special thank you to Post 22 Manager Jason Skala for putting together the Pulled Pork and all the "fixins" banquet.

Post 22 hosted the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Deputy Secretary Paul R. Lawrence last evening for a town hall. Dr. Lawrence is the Department's second-in-command and Chief Operating Officer. He was joined by several members of his staff, as well as multiple State level officers. Thank you for taking time during your visit to SD to speak to our local veterans!

Our 2025-2026 "Mr. Americanism", Lewis Carlyle, also joined the August Meeting to receive his SD State Oratorical Champion Plaques (one for him and one for Stevens High School...so they can place it in the trophy case). Lewis had an amazing year, winning a total of $8,500 in scholarship awards from the Post level, State Level, and National Level of The American Legion. We wish him all the best as he heads off to South Dakota State University to work on an Engineering Degree! We will miss you Lewis!
