American Legion Post 199
St. Helena

American Legion Post 199 located in Saint Helena is a thriving Post with over 115 members and an active Auxiliary Unit. The three primary purposes of Post 199 are to provide social engagements, volunteerism, and donations back to Veteran’s Organizations and the community. Post 199 hosts monthly dinners available to all members and their families. Additionally, Post 199 provides a community wide Memorial Day Ceremony with a lunch. The Post focuses their volunteerism and donations to the Yountville Veteran’s Home along with financial support to college scholarships, youth sports, police, and the fire department. Members of Post 199 are proud to have served their country. The friendly Post members welcome new veteran’s to join us on the second Wednesday of the month with social hour starting at 6 PM and dinner to follow at 7 PM.
