HISTORY

 

VFW Post 1679 has adopted the name "Canteen” to refer to the place within a Post where members can find entertainment and refreshments.

 

Wallace Chaffee VFW Post 1679 Canteen offers a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere where members can avail themselves to a variety of activities like playing pool, throwing darts or a having a good ole game of Left Right Center, Cribbage, and 31. 

 

Post members have access to a juke box that contains a variety of music and multiple flat screen televisions that show different types of programs. Finally, Post members can just unwind or engage in conversation while enjoying one of the many different types of beers, cocktails or non-alcoholic drinks the Post has to offer.
