Donation to the Yardley American Legion Post 317

The Club was honored to have Post Commander Ted Smith and Legion member Bill Fennemore join us for breakfast this morning.

After a few remarks about the history and goals of the American Legion … which was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest wartime veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service members and veterans … and Post 317, President Iaa Sherman and Golf Chair Irv Perlstein presented a donation of $500 for the Legion's support of our 2017 Charity Golf Outing which benefited the Els for Autism Foundation.

From (l to r) Club President Ira Sherman, Commander Ted Smith, Bill Fennemore, and Golf Chair Irv Perlstein.
