Pratt American Legion Post 86 has now opened its doors to the public with COVID-19 social distancing protocols in place, a ramp to the front door and updates inside and out.
Located at 601 East Third Street, the Legion has long been a home-away-from home for local veterans of military service and their families. It now has a ramp for handicap accessibility and even smells good.
“We’re the fifth Legion Post in Kansas to go public,” said Vice Commander Rick Wittig, who serves under Commander Mark Richards.
Wittig said the downstairs club area has been remodeled with new flooring and lights and features two large-screen wall-mounted televisions, plus two pool tables.
