The Grant City American Legion met for its regular monthly
meeting Thursday, September 5th.
The American Legion is back doing veteran funerals by family
requests. Andrew Pickering and Joe Marshall are coordinators for all veteran
funerals.
The Legion is also sponsoring Cub Scout Pack 62. The Baptist
Church dropped sponsorship of the Scouts because the national organization is
now accepting gay scouts. At the request of the pack, the American Legion
unanimously agreed to sponsor them. The Legion had sponsored Pack 62 as early
as 1919 for many years.
The scouts will now meet at the Scout Cabin north of the
Baptist Church that the Legion built for them several years ago. The Scouts
will rebuild the inside of the Cabin at a future date as an activity.
