AMERICAN LEGION POST  #14 - BOZEMAN, MONTANA



I hope this email finds you well. Here are a few items I would like to share. 

Item 1:  We are now serving food 7 days a week at the Legion from 5 til 10 pm except Sunday we have a brunch from 11 am til the food is gone (good breakfast food at reasonable prices).  Wide variety menu and very reasonable, so come on down and enjoy our Veteran camaraderie  and support our common cause.  Tom (our previous cook, moved to Canada) and Cresta our new cook was the head cook at Stacey's for many years.  It is great for all of us at the Post.  

Item 2:  When voting this year be sure you only use a blue or black ink pen and fill in the oval completely and don't go outside the oval.  Make sure your signature matches what you signed when you registered.  You can get a copy of your signature from the election office if you are uncertain.  Any mistakes could make your ballot rejected.  Highly recommended you drop your ballot off at a drop off box at your local election office as there already have been several cases of mail in's found in dumpsters and reject piles.  Thank goodness someone found over 5,000 Veteran ballots from overseas in a trash pile.  

Item 3:  Any of you that are on the co-pay system with the VA might have noticed you have not received a bill for several months.  The VA in helping with the Covid situation,,trying to help, has suspended billing us and will send a big bill in Dec.  It will be a total of all you owe.  They will however, without interest, allow you to pay it off in installments.  Also if you want to catch up you can call:  1-888-827-4817 or write:  VA  PO Box 2978;  Portland, OR  97208;  and that way you don't have to wait for the big one.  

Item 4:  Our local VA clinic is now open for regular doctor appointments.  Also Flu shots, Shingle shots, and pneumonia shots are free and available at the clinic as well as drive up service.  Call the clinic for details.  Appointments are not necessary for shots.  Bingo is every Wed. night 7-9 pm at the Legion and 100% of our proceeds go to our Veterans, their families, our youth programs and our Community as we cannot make a nickel as we are a 501c-19 Veteran not for profit Organization.  What we raise goes to all of them. We have a lot of fun and we help a lot of people.  Wed. 10/21 Adopt-O-Sox will be our special Guests at Bingo and all of the proceeds for that night will go to them to help pay for them shipping 20 lb. boxes of goodies overseas to our Troops, from Montana, deployed.
