Letter to the editor: An open letter to American Legion Post 61 and Prescott

To the editor,

To the esteemed members of American Legion Post 61 and the amazing community of Prescott.

Since the bar at the Legion was taken over, it has been an honor to witness the true power of selfless dedication and volunteerism firsthand. While many know of the remarkable progress Post 61 has made over the last five years, few have seen the tremendous sacrifices made behind the scenes to bring a shared vision to life.

Deep and humble gratitude is extended to the dedicated men and women. They have contributed countless hours of time, immeasurable effort, and personal financial contributions. This core group of unwavering individuals saw what this post could be and worked tirelessly to make that dream a reality.

The building is old, but its soul is stronger than ever. The legacy owed to past generations is being preserved, and it is a source of pride that the right people are driving these crucial improvements.

Looking ahead, the next five years are anticipated with confidence that the positive impact will continue. This impact extends not just to veterans but to the entire Prescott community.

This past Saturday, a moment was taken to look over the massive crowd that filled the Legion and simply smile. It was a profound reminder that behind every successful undertaking is the strength of the community. The volunteers were able to pull off such a large event in a very short time.

From the heart, thank you. Commitment and generosity are deeply appreciated.

Jim Geister

Post 61 Commander
