We would like to inform everyone that our American Legion Post will be in compliance with the recent Declaration by Hidalgo County Officials and City Officials concerning the Corona virus that a gatherings of 10 or more people will be prohibited. Additionally President trump just extended the Social Distancing until April 30th. So let us move forward but follow all guidance in the interest of our health.
All events for our American Legion Post are presently on hold until further notice.
We will keep you posted on any developments that we receive from our District, Division or Department.
The JA Garcia American Legion Post 172 in Mercedes, Texas is proud to introduce our Centennial Commemoration Pin to recognize it 100 years birthday. The pins were designed and obtained thru the efforts of our two Legionaries Tony Sanchez and Oswaldo Castaneda. A job well done. The pins are available for purchase from our Post. They will sell for $5 and you can get them from Tony Sanchez.
