VFW, American Legion work to upgrade PB location

The Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion of Pacific Beach are trying to upgrade their building at 853 Turquoise St. and expand community outreach and are looking for donations.

To raise money in the past, the nonprofits VFW Post 5985, American Legion Post 552, Sons of the American Legion Squadron 552 and American Legion Auxiliary Unit 552, all of which have the same home, have held fundraising events, provided meals for sale and rented the building’s hall. But because of the coronavirus pandemic, the post has been closed
to the public since mid-March.

The groups also are seeking new members. For more information about donations and memberships, contact VFW Post 5985 Commander Mike Hill at (858) 454-7440.
