The annual Buddy Poppy Drive will take place on Saturday, November 14, 2026, and we're asking all members to help make it a success. Our goal is to raise $4,000 to support veteran assistance programs, community outreach, and services that benefit veterans and their families. The Buddy Poppy is more than a symbol. It honors the sacrifices made by those who served our nation and represents our continued commitment to supporting veterans and their families. Volunteers are asked to meet at The Post at 8:30 AM to pick up Buddy Poppies, donation containers, and receive location assignments before heading out to their designated sites. Buddy Poppy teams will be stationed at the following locations: The success of our Buddy Poppy Drive depends on the dedication of our members and volunteers. Whether you can serve for a few hours or throughout the day, your participation helps us reach more community members and move closer to our fundraising goal. Every donation received through the Buddy Poppy program helps fund veteran support initiatives and allows our Post to continue serving those who have sacrificed for our country. Together, we can make this year's campaign our most successful yet. For more information, to volunteer, or to sign up for a location, please contact: Jr. Vice Commander Jeremy Hellbusch "Honor the Dead by Helping the Living." Thank you for your support of our veterans, our Post, and our community. We look forward to seeing everyone at The Post at 8:30 AM on Saturday, November 14, 2026, as we kick off this important tradition and work together to achieve our $4,000 fundraising goal.
