The Eureka American Legion Post 466 will again be the recipients of the tournament’s proceeds which they will use to help fellow veterans and to support veteran’s programs.
The Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. There are 2.4 million American Legion Veterans in the U.S. The Legion first drafted the “G.I.” Bill and now 8 million vets go to school, get jobs, buy houses and raise families. They also led efforts to create the Veteran’s Administration.
The Legion provides free professional assistance for any veteran in filing and pursuing claims. 20,000 young men participate every year in Boys State–a program dedicated to promoting leadership. Boys State alums include: Michael Jordan, Neil Armstrong, and Bill Clinton.
Bob Duncan was past Commander and Treasurer for the Eureka Legion. His love of golf and fun led to the Legion and Dave Rife of Fairlakes Golf Club starting this event in his honor. Bob was the winner of the 1954 Merrill Graham Eureka City Tournament at Kaufman Park and finished runner-up four times.
