The Brainerd Legion Riders are offering to assist post 255 members who are stuck at home, have compromised conditions or are afraid to venture out with errands or chores that Covid-19 virus closings have caused hardship for. If they are in need, just contact a rider, the post (218-829-2249), Steve Eide or Janelle. They can pass the word or contact info, and we’ll see what we can do.
Brainerd Chapter of the American Legion Riders was chartered on October 2, 2013 by 7 members of Carl Sydney Hanson Post 255. The chapter set its charter period as October 18 through December 31, 2013 and closed out the year with 16 charter members with 4 of those members designated as supporters.
Brainerd Chapter meets on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at the Legion Post on Front Street in Brainerd, with socializing prior to the meeting. Additionally, the chapter has restaurant socials every non-meeting Wednesday at various eateries in the local area.
