1 Post 142 Pompano Beach American Legion News Sterling McClellan Post 142 ~ 171 SW 2nd Street ~ Pompano Beach, FL ~ Web Site: ~ legion@alpost142.com September, 2017 A Message from the commander September is going to be a busy month for Post 142. We have some Post projects kicking off. I would like to thank the DAV Chapter 133 for their commitment to donate a shed to Post 142 allowing more storage for wheel chairs, walkers, and misc. items that are needed to help our most fragile Veterans. We are going to be replacing the Ceiling tiles in the dining room in the next month or so, all which will be donated as well. We are also working on raising donations for a six foot rod iron fence with a key card entry for the Tiki Hut area, better known as the Mar-Tiki Hut..LOL Thanks to the Riders we are also adding 2 new horse shoe pits on the southwest side of the building by the Tiki Hut area. I have also been contacted about starting up a pool league with other fraternal organizations. So we are headed in the right direction once again. Let s continue to stay relevant, and upgrade and update everything we can. Remember, a small donation goes a long way. Let s continue to make Post 142 a Great place for everyone.. Thank You! For God, Country and Family Marty Broderick Post 142 Commander A MESSAGE FROM THE 1st VICE COMMANDER Gary Brietling 1st Vice Commander Improvements to our facilities continue in September.

4 THE POST 142 FAMILY ASTONISHES & AMAZES COMMANDER I WANTED TO TAKE A MINUTE AND THANK THE POST 142 FAMILY for the overwhelming love and support you have shown me throughout my tenure as the post 142 commander. Mere words CAN NOT BEGIN TO DESCRIBE THE RESPECT, AND LOVE THAT I HAVE FOR ALL OF YOU. All of you have taught me that no matter what, helping others is always worth it, even when it s tough. You all inspire me to continue to be a better person. I was overwhelmed by the gifts ($ bass pro gift cards). As you can see, I waisted no time putting them to good use (lol). Once again, thank you to my post 142 family for all that you do, and I look forward to working with all of you to make this year even better than the last one. Let s continue to make Post 142 great.
