Legion Post #86 — Sisters, OR. A post since 1934 — Sisters, OR.
- Legion Post #86
- Sisters, OR
American Legion Post 86 Sisters, the American Legion Post 86 — Sisters, OR. The post dates to 1934, when veterans home from the World Wars wanted a room of their own and a way to keep serving after the uniform came off.
Over the years the post has taken on the jobs a town actually asks for: rides to a clinic, a meal after a funeral, help with a ramp, a speaker for a school program. The Legionnaires keep a notebook of what got done and what is still open, and they read it aloud before the meeting adjourns.
The regular meeting is the first Thursday at 7:00 PM. Anyone planning to visit should confirm the night before they come, because a funeral detail or a weather delay can move it. Between meetings the Legionnaires stay in touch the old way: at the hall, and through the officers listed on this sample site — Sisters, OR.

Showing up for the spring scholarship — Sisters
By spring the hall had the spring scholarship underway. Nothing about it was complicated. The Post 86 set a date, split the jobs, and showed up. A few neighbors who are not members came for the afternoon and stayed to ask about the next meeting — Sisters.

What the notebook says so far
Late summer the post looked back at the notebook. The honor detail had been out more than once, the community table had fed a crowded room, and the officers reminded everyone that the next business meeting is the first Thursday at 7:00 PM. This note is a sample of how the post might tell that year — Sisters, OR.
