Chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919, the American Legion is now the nation's largest non-partisan veterans service organization. It is committed to promoting strong national security through the mentoring and sponsorship of youth programs on a community level. Greenwich Legion members participate in local patriotic observances, provide assistance to veterans and their families, and sponsor a number of youth programs, including the Greenwich Cannons baseball team. Meetings are held on the second Monday of the month at this American Legion Hall on Glenville Road.
