LA MESA POST 282

WHAT DOES THE AUXILIARY DO?

The Auxiliary of La Mesa Post 282 exists to help support Post 282 and its facility, and conduct various programs and issues for veterans, children, youth, and Americanism.  Some examples of our involvement includes preparing and serving low cost meals within our facility, Stand Down, parades, poppy distribution, scholarships, recognition for La Mesa Police and Fire, Christmas for families who has at least one parent in a deployed status, flag distribution at cemeteries to honor deceased veterans, and other such programs.  The American Legion Auxiliary works closely with all of the veterans’ organizations resident in our facility with primary support to American Legion Post 282.  All of the organizations help to maintain and operate the facility, necessary for the support and welfare of veterans and for the community of La Mesa. 

Come to a meeting, come to the facility, and/or call/email one of the officers to find what we are all about.  We want your membership and we want you to join us in our various endeavors.   We have many opportunities to engage your skills and help you develop your management skills, if so desired.
