Legion and VFW posts pressure to rebound after pandemic
In Johnstown, American Legion Post 294 expects to sell about 900 hot dogs and 300 pounds of fries during Thunder in the Valley. The pandemic shut the rally last June, slashing revenue that supported veterans programs, property upkeep, and local nonprofits, with posts nationwide and statewide facing reduced memberships and funding as they work to revive community support and recruit new members.
