American Legion District 17 had their Fall Meeting on Sunday September 8, 2024. The meeting was held at Post 637 in Kimberling City that provided us with an outstanding lunch. The new commander at the post is Heather Lawson and she was a very nice host. If you’ve not been to the post it is on highway 13 about 1 mile before the bridge at Table Rock Lake. They have a nice bar and grill and are open 7 days per week 1100 to 2100.
There are some updates to the list of officers for District 17, as follows:
New Vice Commander at Large is Charles Holt who was Sgt-at-Arms before, that position is now Wade M. Harris. We have added 2 Vice Commanders, South will be Heather Lawson, East will be Nicholas Gerdes. We welcome them on board. For a full list of our officers look at the officers tab in this website.
