We had a great Memorial Day ceremony on Monday the 28th honoring those who gave so much so that we could remain free. Post 1776 in Apple Valley is the 2nd largest American Legion Post in Minnesota, and we have some the nicest people and veterans right here at our post. It was a touching ceremony today. Very touching. I want to thank all who attended and presented. Thanks to Lloyd Cybart who did such a fantastic job organizing the event (as he has done in past years).
And a very big thank you to our out going Commander, Carla Osness Tappainer who is now our 3rd District Commander. You will be missed at the Post. And also a big thank you to the City of Apple Valley for your support.
Tonight’s dinner is the last one for a couple of months and was well attended. 130 attended though 109 had RSVP’d ahead of the dinner. Still, everyone was accommodated.
Our Commander Carla Tappainer is stepping down after leading Post 1776 for the previous three years. We’ve seen many changes at the post including the hiring of a professional General Manager in Linsey Green who is doing a fantastic job.
Our kitchen is profitable and the comments we get here through the web site and through Google all point to one of the best places for Veterans and their families to come to for some fellowship, good food and music.
Carla was honored at the dinner tonight by the City of Apple Valley (Mayor Mary presented the honor) and by Beyond the Yellow Ribbon for her selfless service to Post 1776. We will miss your leadership Carla but we know you’ll still be around.
We wish you all the best in your role leading the Legions 3rd District. All the best.
