Gas Station Fundraiser 2017 for the Post

For the month of May 2017, Post members will gather at the BP service station on Saturday and Sunday, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, except Sunday, May 14, 2017, which is Mother's Day, to give out American Flags and Post Pens to the customers of this service station for a donation to help veterans. Post members are urged to help out and participate by giving out the flags and pens for this worthy cause.

We use the proceeds to assist fellow veterans, hospitalized veterans, active service persons, and for post activities in our community. BP service station is located at 1776 Merrick Avenue, North Merrick. Veterans should drop by this event to find out why they should join the American Legion. American Legion, Merrick Post No. 1282, is actively looking for new members to join our Post.
