Calendar
Hello to all Post 211 members. I hope everyone is safe and healthy.
During the General membership meeting on the 11th of March, we will be taking nominations for Commander, 1st Vice Commander and 2nd Vice Commander. To nominate a person that person must be present and willing to accept the nominations. Durning the month of May membership meeting we will have final nominations and elect new officers. Need people to step up and support the post.
A big THANK YOU goes out to Barbara Escobedo for stepping up as “Queen Mom”. The Post will now be supporting another Flower Queen Candidate for this year. We look forward for everyone to support Barbara in this endeavor. April 11 is a Chicken Enchiladas fundraiser to support our Queen Candidate. Pre-sale Tickets are $17.00 each for 1 dozen (12) and are now available for purchase. Pick up between 1400 and 1700 on April 11, come out and support our candidate.
Note for Smokers: Please reframe from using our BBQ pit as an ashtray, there are several ash trays available for use in the smoking area. We take pride in our BBQing and we don’t like smelling BUTTS! If this continues, I will be forced to MOVE the smoking area outside of the fenced area.
***A note from our Queen Candidate! HELLO!! My name is Nichole Urlusuaslegui I am proud to be the American Legion Post 211 Queen Candidate this year. I am 17 years old and currently go to Lompoc High school. I am part of the Latinos Unidos club where I help everyone feel welcome and united. I participate in many community service events and help out when needed. I come from a small family of parents and two brothers. My oldest brother is 22 and currently enlisted in the US Army, my younger brother is 12 making me the middle child. I look forward to meeting everyone in the Post 211 family and to represent the Post for the 2026 Flower Festival.
Well, that is about it for now. Hope to see you all around the post.
Dan Raybuck, Commander
