American Legion State Department 98th Convention was a huge success thanks to the support of our business community and the members of the Post 12 family. The common complaint we fielded was, “I think I gained ten pounds.” Thank you, ladies of the auxiliary for breakfasts each morning, to the Sons of the Legion for lunches and the Strong brothers, Chip and Tony, for the dinners.
A special thanks to John Newton, convention chair, for coordinating with the State Department and getting the Post ready for the convention. To Jackie Martin of the auxiliary and to Nick Kokotovich of the Sons of the Legion, thanks to you and your team members who pulled together and made the 98th Department convention a success. Without your hard work it would not have happened. Thanks to all.
Bill Rostad, American Legion Post 12
