Gallagher Hansen VFW Post 295 -South St. Paul MN. was chartered in 1919 (100 years ago) by a group Veterans who after serving in WWI, returned to our community. They were proud of their Military Service and were seeking the comradeship of those who like themselves knew first-hand what we mean when we say; “Some gave all, but all gave some”. So, Inspired, by the knowledge that; “Freedom is not Free”, they dedicated themselves to serving their fellow veterans, their Families, their widows and their orphans and their community. It is this Legacy that allows us to say: “We take Pride in 295 because here we truly, Honor the dead by serving the Living”. – Mike Labovitch, Commander

Dear Comrades and Citizens of South St Paul.
As you are aware, we are all faced with extremely challenging times during this pandemic.
In order to support the stay-at-home order our Governor has put in place and after talking with Post officers and the American Legion We’ve come to the decision to avoid any ongoing threat of COVID-19 and its potential health risk to the community. We’ve decided to Cancel this year's Memorial Day Parade and Service as well as our Poppy Distribution.
This was a very difficult decision to make, one that was not taken lightly - but we felt it was the right approach. We are in discussion to come up with an alternative program for Memorial Day.
