The Post
Needs Your Help
Legion Baseball has been a tradition since it was founded in
1925. The Legion program has made it possible for thousands of young boys to
play organized baseball during the summer. Many of our high school, college and
professional players have come through the Legion Baseball programs. There are
forty-three Baseball Hall of Famers who have played in various Legion Leagues
nationwide.
Members of Leyden-Chiles-Wickersham Post 1 believe it is important
that we continue to support this activity. However, it is difficult to continue
funding without a fund-raising effort. We are therefore, asking our
friends to assist us in contributing to our Baseball program.

Donation Form in pdf format.
