American Legion Auxiliary #125 in Princeton to hold meeting on May 18

In the early 2000s, the Princeton VFW sold its former building and moved in with the Princeton American Legion, located on West Peru Street. A move like so was unheard of at the time, but it was an important one that has made both veteran organizations stronger in the long run.

The American Legion Auxiliary Unit #125 in Princeton will hold its May meeting at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, May 18 at the legion building, located at 1549 W. Peru St.

Following the meeting the group will be assembling Memorial Day bags for Veterans at local retirement and nursing homes.

Those interested in become a member are invited to this meeting. The group is actively seek ing new members to ensure they can honor local Veterans.
