BREAKING NEWS
Welcome to the
Onion Creek American Post 326 web site!
As we begin the new Post fiscal year of 2011-2012, I am reminded of the many opportunities we have to make a difference in the lives of our fellow military veterans. We can do so, with a commitment to the mission and purpose of this organization. We must always be in pursuit of the founding principles and beliefs of the American Legion, "For God and Country."
Let us never forget the great sacrifices made by those who served before of us and who are serving now. We are truly veterans…serving veterans in many different ways. We do this through awarding college scholarships and providing opportunities for growth and leadership through the Texas Boys State and Texas Bluebonnet Girls State programs. Also occurring locally, supporting the growing needs of our homeless veterans.
Conservative investments have allowed us to start the new Post year in a strong financial position. Our financial records have been reviewed by our Post Audit Committee and all accounts have been reconciled and balanced. All funds have been properly accounted for. Our Budget & Finance Committee has presented a balanced budget for the 2011-2012 fiscal year. The budget has been extensively reviewed and approved by our Executive Committee and the General Membership.
Our primary fund raising event each year continues to be the Annual American Legion Memorial Golf Tournament held in May of each year at the Onion Creek Club. The success of this event is critical and allows Post 326 to continue its support and funding of many important veterans/community service programs.
If you are interested in joining the Onion Creek American Legion Post 326, please contact me, any member of our Executive Committee or Tom Harder, Chairman-Membership Committee (512-656-7410).
