                      Francis Scott Key Post No. 11
Official Bulletin Vol. XXXIX No.7
JANUARY — 2022

                             Masks not required if you have been vaccinated
 Francis Scott Key Post 11’s success depends entirely on active membership, participation and volunteerism.

                                           COMMANDER’S ROLL CALL
                Happy New year to all Legionnaires, Sons of American Legion, Auxiliary Members,
                Legion Riders, and your family members. May everyone's New Year be filled with
                Good Health, Love, Joy and Peace. 2021 was filled with many challenges, thankfully
                not as many as 2020. I believe it's because this and many communities took initiative
                and responsibility to fight the COVID Pandemic head on in an effort to get back to
some sense of normalcy. Because of the effort, I want to thank everyone for doing their part. That
said; this is not the time to let up and become complacent. The new strain of the Virus should keep
us all ever mindful, watchful and attentive to detail. Please continue to practice social distancing
when you are not comfortable with your surroundings, wearing a mask, and washing your hands
frequently will keep others safe and secure.

As I reflect on the past year and generally how volunteers and paid staff put forward their best effort
daily to make The American Legion Post 11 a safe and comfortable place to patronize, I want to
thank you. Seasonal and Holiday decorations gave the Post the festive look and feel that had been
absent the past couple of years and when the opportunity permits; say thank you to those responsi-
ble for bringing it back. Maintaining these seasonal and festive looks require time, energy, and ide-
as. We welcome as many volunteers as we can get to lessen the effort by the limited pool of volun-
teers currently providing these looks and feelings.

Membership is very important to our Post. If you have not renewed your membership, the New
Year is a fine time to do so. Members can renew by mail, online, or my favorite - stop into the Post
and see the admin staff. If you are having a financial hardship and not able to renew, please con-
tact our admin staff to see how we may be able to help. I encourage you to ask others who qualify
for membership to sign up as well. Recruiting 5 new members (active duty or veterans) will earn
you a free membership for 2023. Once your membership is renewed, I ask you to consider giving
of your time by volunteering in the many programs that the Post is involved with and assist in mak-
ing a difference in the community.

Volunteering in my opinion is a heartfelt act of kindness and there is a clear need in our community.
If your passion is helping retired veterans and their families or programs involving children and
youth, the American Legion Post 11 is the organization for you.

Let us all continue to be healthy, well and stay safe. One Band, One sound.

                                        S.A.L. News by: Jeffrey Seiler, Commander

                The Sons of The American Legion would like to wish everybody a Happy New Year and we hope
                your Christmas was everything that you wanted it to be. We hope everyone enjoyed the Post Christ-
                mas Party, and hope that everyone that attended the Auxiliary/SAL/American Legion Riders Christ-
                mas party had a wonderful time. Look for some photos on the bulletin board.
We would like to thank everyone that attended the Army - Navy game at the Legion. The American Legion Family
contributed to the Toys-For-Tots program during the Army - Navy football game for an all time high. (Navy has the
bragging rights this year!) Wayne Fox, Lee Dilda and Jeff & Julia Seiler went shopping at Wal-Mart where Toys-for-
Tots met us and we filled their truck up with toys totaling $2,124.21 along with a $1,000.00 check from the Detach-
ment of Maryland. We also received a check from the American Legion Auxiliary in the amount of $500.00. Again,
a HUGE Thank you to all.

On February 4th The American Legion Family will be doing the Polar Bear Plunge at Sandy Point State Park. The
Sons of The American Legion National Commander Michael Fox will be doing the plunge with us and will be with us
throughout the weekend. We will be having our Mid-Term Squadron Officer Training and Special Olympics Mary-
land draw down on Saturday February 5th and the Detachment Executive Meeting on Sunday February 6th at The
Grand Hotel in Ocean City, Maryland.
If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to help at the American Legion more, please contact Patricia or Norma in the
office and they will be more than glad to let you know when and where we could use help. We really need help with
Bingo on Wednesdays and the First Sunday of the month.
The American Legion is asking for some suggestions and activities that you might want to see at our Post. This is
your chance to have your voice heard. We want to know what our members want. Areas for ideas, maybe you have
additional or expand on these.
        Types of music                  Ideas for family night                   Video night
        Family game night               Family dinner night                      Game room ideas

No suggestions are bad. Not all suggestion will be implemented. This is your Post Home. It’s not just a bar/lounge.
Let’s make this a place to come and bring your family and friends.
The Sons of The American Legion membership calendar year is from July 1st, 2021 to June 30th, 2022. The dues are
$35.00 per member and $15.00 for junior members. If you have not paid your dues this is a reminder that your dues
are now PAST DUE. Please stop by the post and pay your dues as they are now due. We are just at 50% however
that means that about 50% of our members have NOT paid their dues.
The Sons of The American Legion continue to support the programs that benefit our veterans, our active duty military
and the children of our country. A program that is starting up now is the Oratorical Contest.
Our next meeting will be on February 7th 2022 at 6:30 pm in the lounge. Please put this on your calendar and come
and attend the S.A.L. meeting.
Sons Continuing the Tradition of Caring!!

               of the Toys for Tots from our Legion Family this year raising over $3,000. Thanks to Jeff Seiler
and Wayne Fox for collecting and shopping for this great cause.
Please if you have some time to spare, come help us on Wednesday evening with concessions for Bingo.

grateful for any extra coupons you may have. Our Juniors are collecting pajamas for “Casey Cares Founda-
tion”. Pajamas of all sizes are needed throughout the year. Also, through “Hammy’s Heart”, which is part of

                                            Legion Riders By: Tim Smith, Director
                I want to wish all our Legion family a happy new year. I hope 2022 brings prosperity, happiness, safety,
                and some normalcy to all. I am looking forward to a new year for our Riders, with new rides and fund
                raising. This time of year, we make our New Year resolutions (unless last year you resolved not to make
any resolutions…) and the Riders will be as well. Sometime this spring, we will be organizing a Ride-In, hosting the
Posts with ALR chapters to bring everyone together and talk about collectively raising money, and supporting our vet-
eran communities. I believe we can do this better by combining efforts than fundraising as an individual Post. I am hop-
ing the Ride-In will be a yearly tradition passed onto other Posts. With Riders in our name, I am hoping we can come
together and enjoy many motorcycle rides together, as a chapter, having fun, enjoying the camaraderie, and representing
Post 11 in our community. The Riders also provide color guard, rifle detail, and taps to service member’s funerals and
other occasions that require them within our community. I will be looking forward to seeing everyone at the Post. I am
hoping to hit the Ace of Spades at least once this year! Be safe.
If you would like to become a member or supporting member, please attend our meetings. You can also contact our
Membership Chairman (Jami Clevenger) at jamiclevenger@outlook.com or go to our website. Membership is free, but
you must be a Legionnaire, Auxiliary, or SAL member with dues paid up to date. You do not need to own a motorcycle
to become a supporting member. We meet on the 1st Thursday of every month at 7:00 pm sharp in the meeting bay.
You must renew your membership annually to stay an active member and continue to receive emails. For all members,
please contact our Membership Chairman with any changes to your contact status to continue receiving up to date infor-
mation.
Please visit our website WWW.ALRFSKPOST11.ORG for all scheduled rides, events, applications, etc., and more in-
formation on the American Legion Riders. Please also check out our Face Book page, The American Legion Riders of

                             The FSK Post 11 Leadership and I want to thank all of the Legion Family so much for
                             supporting the Wreaths Across America Program this year. Almost 500 wreaths were
                             sponsored by individuals and businesses from the FSK Legion Family. Those wreaths,
                             along with the 2800 donated by other community groups, were placed by volunteers
                             at Mount Olivet Cemetery on Wreaths Across America Day, where they will remain
                             until mid-January. FSK Post 11’s original goal for 2021 was 250 wreaths. We did our
                             part to place a wreath on every veteran’s grave at Mt Olivet Cemetery. Our Post Exec-
                             utive committee voted to continue this program for 2022. For every two wreaths pur-
                             chased, we will get one free. This should help us reach the goal of every veteran’s
grave receiving a wreath at Mount Olivet Cemetery to Remember and Honor them. Again, my personal thanks to all
who donated, and we will start up again soon for the 2022 year.
The money raised this year from the donated wreaths will be used to buy new flags for placement on veteran’s
graves at Mount Olivet Cemetery on Memorial Day and to help with the restoration of the Bladensburg Peace Cross
in Bladensburg, MD.
Help Us to Keep Going! REMEMBER the Fallen. . . HONOR those who Serve. . . TEACH our children the value of
Freedom.
