Get involved
Find Your Place in the Work.
There is no single way to belong here. Help for an afternoon, attend a meal, lead a project, mentor a young person, stand with a grieving family, sponsor needed supplies, or become a member. Start where you are and choose the kind of service that fits your life.
Not ready to join? Start by showing up. A single project or meeting is enough to begin.
For eligible veterans
Join as a Veteran
You already answered the call. Post 31 is a place to keep serving — on your terms, close to home, alongside people who understand. Bring your experience, your ideas, or simply your presence.
No commitment
Come to a Meeting
Third Monday of the month at 6:00 p.m. The hall is at 110½ N. Main St. in Tuscumbia. Upstairs hall with stair lift. All veterans invited. A meal is shared and all veterans are welcome.
Help an afternoon or a season
Volunteer Locally
Pack gift bags, deliver to a veteran in person, help place flags on graves before Memorial Day, support a ceremony, photograph an event, drive a parade vehicle, or lend a professional skill.
Item drives and sponsorship
Support a Project
Donate requested items for veteran gift bags (T-shirts, socks, toiletries, snacks, large-print puzzle books, signed greeting cards). Sponsor a packing day. Help purchase grave flags. Donations may be mailed to the Post with a memo line noting the project.
Businesses, churches, civic groups
Partner with Post 31
Host a collection point. Sponsor supplies, a meal or a youth team. Bring your employees together for a service project that reaches veterans close to home. Long-standing partners include TVA, the Shoals Elks Lodge and Bicentennial Volunteers.
American Legion Baseball
Support Youth & Baseball
Coach. Score-keep. Sponsor a team. Help with logistics or photography. The Post fields junior, varsity and 19U teams in recent seasons. Check the team pages for the current season.
Legion Family
Ask about Legion Family opportunities
The American Legion Family includes the Auxiliary, the Sons of The American Legion and the Legion Riders. Local status varies — ask the Post which Family options are currently active or being organized.
History and remembrance
Share a Veteran's Story
If you'd like to preserve a loved one's service story or share a memory connected to Post 31's work — a ceremony, a delivery, a baseball season — the Post would welcome hearing from you.
