Members of the Pottsgroves American Legion Post served Sept. 11 in a color guard for the Open Doors community day event in Pottstown.

STOWE PA -There’s plenty to be talked about Thursday (Sept. 23, 2010) at 7:30 p.m., when members of the Sanatoga-based Brig. Gen. Elmer S. Friedberg American Legion Post 244 gather for their September meeting in St. Gabriel Lodge, at the corner of Jefferson Street and Grosstown Road, Stowe PA. Veterans of the Legion so far have had a very busy month.

• This event has been added to The Post calendar.

Post members Commander Ed Clark, Adjutant Billy Worrell, Larry McCann and Chuck Kropp (in photos above and below) were on hand to serve as one of two color guards available for the Open Doors community day event Sept. 11 (2010) in Pottstown PA. It included a solemn ceremony commemorating those who lost their lives during terrorist attacks in New York City.

Paying homage to the fallen of Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

Then on Sunday (Sept. 19), Post members were again in attendance for the annual POW-MIA Recognition Day ceremonies held at the Vietnam War memorial in Memorial Park, West King Street, Pottstown, by the Friends of The Forgotten.

And as they do six times a year, Post members were busy during August (photo at bottom) conducting Bingo games for residents of the Southeastern Veterans Center in Spring City PA. The bi-monthly games are organized, operated, and supplied with prizes by the Post at no cost to the center or participants. The next games are scheduled for Oct. 26 at 7 p.m. in the center.
