This very special event will include the Four Chaplains Ceremony featuring  the Fox Family, several other Fox Family led tributes, local organist Barbara Connelly, the American Legion Auxiliary National President, Trish Ward, and E. Concord pastor Rev. Gerry Piper.

The Four Chaplains Ceremony honors the selfless service of the Four Chaplains, who gave their lives to save others while their ship was sinking. Their actions are a reminder of the importance of humanitarian values and working for the good of all humanity.
It has become the symbol of the American Legion and American Legion Auxiliary.
It is a call to love in a sacrificial way for the benefit of mankind to the end that they may have a better world in which to live. Not by dying but by living so unselfishly that others may live more abundantly.

American Legion Auxiliary National President, Trish Ward, will be signing the charter for Post #41 and installing these new officers:


President ~ Carla Amadon

Secretary/Treasurer ~
