Since being chartered in 1919, our American Legion Post has been welcoming VETERANS from all branches of our Armed Forces. Today, we continue to welcome all qualified military personnel serving our country. Joining our Post enables you to continue serving your God, Country and Community. Our mission is to implement the goals, aspirations, dreams, peace and blessings for our country, friends and families embodied in our preamble below.
October 2020
The Elmhurst American Legion THB Post 187 would like to invite you to our first, Inaugural Nashville Songwriter Benefit on October 30, 2020. We hope you'll join us for this one of a kind benefit for the Elmhurst American Legion THB Post 187. This socially distanced event will offer an intimate peek behind the curtain of what Nashville songwriting and performing is all about.
Join us for a special evening with hit Nashville songwriters, Steve Bogard and Jason Sever from 7-10pm on October 30th. What makes this so incredibly unique is the audience truly gets an up close and personal evening hearing the stories behind the songs and the writer's performance. The audience will recognize many radio hits throughout several decades and might even hear one that will become the next big hit! There is an inclusiveness with this event that you won’t find anywhere else. The audience will have the privilege of listening to the original music written and performed by the writer himself and hear first hand stories behind the songs.
Some of the songs you’ll recognize are from artists like: George Strait, Etta James, Dierks Bentley, Tim McGraw, Martina McBride, Dylan Scott, Dustin Lynch, Gary Allen, Luke Bryan and many many more!
Both writers support the VA and Jason and Steve plan on spending time with one special and local veteran and his/her story. Their collaboration will come to life through a song they plan on performing live for all of us to hear first!
We hope you’ll consider joining us for this special fundraiser that supports our Elmhurst American Legion THB Post 187.
