FlyerVFW Post 11453 Hosts Poppy Donation Event in Cheyenne, WY

On Saturday, May 24, 2025, Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 11453 in Cheyenne, Wyoming, will host a meaningful poppy donation event at Sam's Club. Running from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, the event will raise awareness and funds to support veterans and their families.

The red poppy has long been a symbol of remembrance for fallen soldiers and a way to honor those who have served. This tradition stems from World War I, inspired by the poem In Flanders Fields by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae. By accepting donations and distributing poppies, VFW Post 11453 continues this legacy, helping to support programs dedicated to veterans' well-being.

Gil, a dedicated member of the post, will set up the donation booth at 8:00 AM. Throughout the day, community members will be greeted by a team of volunteers, each giving their time to support the cause:

8:00 AM – 10:00 AM: Gil and Steve
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM: Mary Lee and Dennis
12:00 PM – 2:00 PM: Bryan and Randy
2:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Jenna and Carl

Local residents are encouraged to stop by, make a donation, and wear a poppy to show their support. Every contribution goes a long way in assisting veterans with essential services, medical support, and community programs.
 
The VFW Post 11453 appreciates the generosity of the Cheyenne community and looks forward to a successful event. Join them in honoring those who have served and ensuring that their sacrifices are never forgotten.

Eligible veterans are encouraged to ask about membership into VFW Post 11453. Check eligibility vfw.org/join/eligibility

Meadowlark Market

Calling for your help.

We will have a table at the Meadowlark Market at the end of October 2025. The market is kind of a craft show and more. As funds received from Poppy donations go into our Relief Fund can only be used to support veteran's, their families, and such. We are hoping to sell crafted items to raise funds for our Post General Fund (insurance and other such expenses). Here goes: We are putting out a call for your talent. So far we have some items promised: Bird Houses, Macrame key fobs, and some Crocheted items.
