Elk Grove's first dedicated Veterans Hall honors and serves the estimated 9,000 veterans within the city. It's a place for fellowship among those who have served our country. Offices for the American Legion Post 233, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and the Marine Corps League are available for programs and services.
The Veterans Grove, an outdoor space, available for rent, has picnic tables and BBQ grills at the base of flagpoles representing the branches of service.
The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest wartime veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service members and veterans. The American Legion is a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization.
