Our Programs
Boys State
American Legion Boys State is among the most respected and selective educational programs of government instruction for high school students. It is a participatory program where each participant becomes part of the operation of his local, county, and state government. Post 114 sponsors two to three young men each year.
Oratorical Scholarship Program
"A Constitutional Speech Contest" — developed to instill a better knowledge and appreciation of the Constitution in high school students. The program develops leadership qualities, the ability to think and speak clearly, and preparation for the duties and responsibilities of American citizenship.
Junior ROTC
Post 114 proudly supports the Junior ROTC program at Osbourne High School, helping to develop leadership skills, discipline, and civic responsibility in young students.
Poppy Campaigns
During World War I, when the fields of Flanders were bombed, sunlight reached poppy seeds in the disturbed soil and soon the fields were covered with red blossoms. The American Legion adopted the red poppy as its symbol, worn every Memorial Day and Veterans Day.
The Manassas Project
This historical Post site redevelopment features six attractive duplexes that will provide affordable housing for veterans. These duplexes blend well with the current character and architecture of the community, serving those who served our nation.
