We meet on the second Tuesday of each month at American Legion Post 298 at 625 31st Street in Marion at 7 p.m. and you are cordially invited to come see what we do and how we do it. Our meetings last about an hour and are followed by classes taught by our members. We finish about 9 or so. Here are some things from those classes and others just to show off...
