*** From the Commander ***
American Legion Post
290’s current status has progressed.
The sale of the post building has been completed with the closing on
15 October 2026.
The building was sold to Sean & Jodie Oelkerlund owners of the
Cambridge Bar and Grill. Their plans are to attach the building
with the Bar and Grill complex via a hallway between the two buildings.
The sale contract included a right to use contract enabling the American
Legion Post 290 to use the building to perform all of the activities
that the post has always done at a cost of $1.00 annually.
This gives the post a financially stable position that will support
the club and allow it to function as it always has. We will be in
the same location supporting Veterans and the community as we always have.
We will continue to perform gun raffles and other fund raising events to
continue providing support to the community.
Post 290 will be participating in a fund raising activity
partnering with Tidal Wave Auto Spa. We will be selling Tidal Wave’s
$30.00 car wash for $10.00. This is cheaper than their least
expensive car wash. It’s a steal!!!! Tickets are available from
post members and also will be sold at the second Tuesday of the month
meeting at 6pm. They will also be available at the Cambridge Bar and Grill.
