Don’t miss this unforgettable evening with The Navy Band Sea Chanters, the U.S. Navy’s premier chorus, performing a free concert at the Sanford Performign Arts Center at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 5.

Known for their impeccable harmonies, dynamic stage presence, and versatile repertoire, the Sea Chanters perform everything from traditional choral works and rousing patriotic anthems to sea chanteys, opera, Broadway showstoppers, and contemporary favorites. Based in Washington, D.C., the Sea Chanters perform for presidents, vice presidents, members of Congress, military leaders, and international dignitaries. They also inspire audiences nationwide on their acclaimed national tours. Formed in 1956 to preserve the songs of the sea, the ensemble has grown into one of America’s most celebrated choral groups—expanding their repertoire to embrace everything from Brahms to Broadway, and bringing a spirit of excellence and pride to every performance.

The evening promises music that honors tradition, celebrates our nation, and showcases the extraordinary talent of America’s sailors.

This American Legion Post #36 Breakfast Buffet has been a tradition spanning many years now. Aside from a few minor unforeseen and unavoidable changes, most everything else remains the same. All who enter the Legion Hall doors on a Breakfast Buffet Sunday, will get a great meal for a fair price/donation, get to see old friends and/or family, or meet someone interesting for the first time. The menu items have satisfied many folks over the years, and I have no doubt that this year will be no different. So come and enjoy the Legion Buffet Breakfast this season, enjoy the food, enjoy the camaraderie, and learn how you (Yes, You) can play a key role in this year's breakfast season - or next year's season. There are a number of very important people who make these breakfasts a success each year, if you have any interest in becoming a volunteer or member of the breakfast crew - ask for the least important person in the mix (Christopher) when you arrive for breakfast. These breakfast buffets take place every other Sunday starting on April 2, 2025.

Owlbear’s Rest is usually an escape from adulting for grown-ups—except on Sunday mornings! Bring the whole crew for a game-filled adventure that’s perfect for adventurers of any age. Your little halflings can enjoy a warm steamer while you sip on a well-earned latte (oat milk available!).

Family gaming time starts here!
