The Nelson Unit 187 American Legion Family normally meets on the second Thursday of every month but the extreme weather conditions on Jan. 11, made it necessary to postpone until the following Thursday, Jan. 18. Since temperatures were extremely cold that night, many did not leave the safety of their home but eight brave souls, four legionnaires and four auxiliary members, ventured out and to the clubhouse to continue making plans for the District 10 Convention that will be held in Nelson on Saturday, Feb. 10.

The February meeting date will be at 7 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 2. On the following Friday, Feb. 9, members are asked to gather to assist in setting up the Auditorium and Legion Clubroom for the convention. It is also time to consider Boys and Girls State and Junior Law Cadet nominations as well as scholarship applications.
