Annual Aurora American Legion Golf Outing @ Tamarack Golf Club
Sep 21 @ 10:30 am – 6:30 pm

Thank you for your support of the 3rd Annual Roosevelt Aurora Golf Outing.  These past two years have been a lot of fun and your generosity has helped keep the Roosevelt Aurora Post 84 of the American Legion thriving. The funds raised from this golf outing is used to help active duty service members, Veterans and their families.  Post 84 has a scholarship program, works with the food pantries to help distribute food to our Veterans, participate in annual events that honor of Veterans and much more.

We have been so successful we recently outgrew our old office and have relocated into a bigger and more functional office at 1649 Montgomery Road, Suite 7 in Aurora.  We invite you to stop by.  However, we cannot continue without your help.  Please consider becoming a sponsor or buying a foursome to golf and help us to continue to provide assistance to the Aurora area Veterans.

On behalf of Roosevelt Aurora Post 84 of the American Legion, we welcome you to our 2023 Golf Classic at a new golf course location.

Since 1919, Post 84 has been an integral participant of the Fox Valley community.  We remain dedicated to our support and service to our local Veterans, families and community

Mike Eckburg, Commander Post 84

Hello Dear Friends,

I am sharing this email with you in hopes you would consider joining us this year. I know like many of you, we have organizations that are near to our hearts.

Suicide Prevention Services of America in Batavia is that organization for me. Suicide has impacted our family as it has many others and this organization has been helping support families, schools and communities in the Fox Valley area for over 30 years.

Kim and I want to fill 2 tables this year. If you are able to attend, please find the registration information in the link below.(Please indicate you are with us)

If you are not available to attend, perhaps consider making a donation or providing a gift that could be used in the raffle to help raise funds in support of their mission.

Thank you for everything you do.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Support Our Kane County Board @ Kane County Democrats Office
Mar 4 @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm

If you are interested in supporting your county board, please attend a meeting on Monday, March 4 at 6:30 p.m. at the Kane County Dems office. 473 Dunham Road – Suite 102. Invite friends who may show interest in supporting this board.

I am writing to seek your help and support for our County Board.  There is an active group of people attending the county monthly board meetings who are agitators and disrupters and are preventing the board from doing the governing of the county.  These groups like, Moms for liberty, Three headed Eagle, Warriors among others want to keep government small and not spend money on any services EVER.  They were successful in making enough noise to keep the board from voting for a badly needed tax levy for county services. They are winning the battle by just showing up! The county will run out of reserves in two years and will struggle to maintain the services we have come to expect in our beautiful community.

There are new concerns and issues that need addressing but this group of people are at every meeting to make sure not one dime is spent.  There has not been any opposing perspectives from the public and the board is inclined to listen to the loudest voices.   We would like to build a bench of volunteers to help support our county board members. What do we need from you?

If you or someone you know could:

  • Attend meetings to be present and show support
  • Make signs and hold them up during the meetings around various issues
  • Sign up and speak during public comments
  • Write letters to the board in support of various initiatives
  • Post on Social Media/ Nextdoor App

The board and various subcommittees meet 4 or 5 times a month. The meetings are during the mornings/day so it requires individuals who have weekday flexibility.

We will hold a meeting of those interested in hearing more about what the County Board’s issues are and what they are proposing and strategies to support them ongoing.

Meeting scheduled for Monday, March 4 at 6:30 p.m. at the Kane County Dems office:
473 Dunham Road
Suite 102
Saint Charles, IL 60174
