​Please help us "Finish the Flag", our fundraiser for the Post. State Senator Toni Boucher donated a wooden Flag we plan to hamg over the fireplace in the meeting hall. Instead of stars in the Union, we are placing 50 challenge coins​. The cost is $25 per coin, you may either donate your own coin (there are web sites that sell them, ​norbay.com​ and ​​medalsofamerica.com​, as well as the Legion Emblem store have a great variety). I also have some for use at the Post, contact me and I will set you up. We want to complete this project for the Open House November 11, 2017, so let's get this rolling!

Welcome to our two newest members: Robert Riccio and Bo Lotocky. ​​​​​

​The Post building is currently undergoing some renovations by the members. Look for pictures on the photo page soon. We will also have a public Open House after the Veteran's Day parade/Ceremony on November 11th. More details to follow.

Commander Don and Tom Moore set up a table for the Wilton Street Fair, Saturday July 15. We handed out 8 applications for membership and collected $28.00 in donations to the Post. It was a beautiful day and we met with some very nice people.

​The Memorial Day Parade was a success, even though there a few raindrops around. Congratulations to our own to Vinnie Von Zwehl for being named as the Grand Marshal of this year's parade. Thanks to Vinnie and his wife Connie we had a nice lunch afterwards in the main floor at the Post. Thank you all!

​Saturday, May 20th, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, the state library in conjunction with the Wilton library, will be holding a  digitization event. They want to record, either copies of document/photos or actual items that relate to WWI. If you have something to offer, please bring it to the library and they will take care of this process. Post 86 has some items that we want to contribute. All these items that are digitized will be available to view online for everyone to look at. Check the Wilton Library website for more info.

I have the new Post membership directories printed out. If anyone would like a copy there will be some copies at the Post meeting hall. If we run out, I can always print more.​
