Locally AMVETS Post 2018 has a vibrant community of people who are very active in a number of veteran services and also does other excellent things like the big box of supplies that are being shipped over today, and every month, to children in the Philippines. We are always looking to help out local vets by building ramps, landscaping and lawn care, rides to the VA and doctor appointments and of cleanup and repairs post hurricane Sally. Our local post makes monthly visits to William F. Green State Veterans Home however since Covid we are limited to bringing a truck load of snacks, sodas and some other essentials. We also have some fun along the way, which helps with a little income to support our post activities including cookouts, live music and bingo nights and more. It's a great group of men and women and their families who care and want to be of service. Bottom line: AMVETS' motto, "Veterans Helping Veterans" https://m.facebook.com/amvets2018/ https://amvets2018.org/

My traveling companion and I decided to check it. FOOD IS CASH ONLY. The bar you can run a tab (minimum of $10 charge on your card.) Steak night is from 5-7 on Fridays. The place was entirely full at 5:30 when we arrived. The kitchen did an amazing job turning the food out. It was a very short wait. THE STEAK WAS DELICIOUS. I'm from the Midwest, so I am usually pretty picky about my steak. I would definitely go back again.
