Freedom Isn’t Free
But It Is Worth Fighting For


AMVETS Clothing Drive for Florida Veterans

From SEC, AMVETS Department of Florida has started to gather items of clothing, blankets, and sundries for homeless vets.  Florida has approximately 1100 homeless veterans.  We are looking for a volunteer to head up this worthwhile endeavor. If interested, feel free to contact a Post Officer.


Thanksgiving Meal

We will be having our Thanksgiving Dinner on 28 November from 13:00 to 14:30. The Post will provide the turkeys. We ask that you bring a covered dish to share. Please plan on attending for some great comraderie.


Ladies Auxiliary Food Drive

If you’re going to the Post, please consider bringing an item to donate to the Leesburg Food Pantry. The Auxiliary Community Service Chairwoman Mary Ann Jarboe is assisting the pantry by collecting needed items each month. The pantry includes Mac & Cheese in every food basket it gives out to needy families, and they’re supply is low. For October, they are collecting Pasta – spaghetti, elbows, any kind of noodles.

Thank you in advance!


Honor Guard

We are still looking for volunteers to participate in our Honor Guard. Our post has almost 400 members, plus Sons of AMVETS and Ladies Auxiliary. We need at least five people to step up. It will be good to provide the honors earned to our deceased brothers and sisters and to participate in local events. Please consider signing up on one of the lists posted. You can also send an email to webmaster@amvets2006.org


We Need Volunteers

The Post needs volunteers for activities and assistance in operating the post.  If people do not step up, you will see activities decrease.  If you want to volunteer, please contact any officer or trustee with your interest.  Please ensure anytime you volunteer, you submit your time to 2nd VP ________________________.  If you would like to volunteer, click HERE.
