Iowa Legionnaire
The Iowa Legionnaire print publication has been discontinued due to rising printing and postage costs and declining membership revenue.
The department is exploring alternatives to replace the current format.
Department Website
The department website has been redesigned. However, some updates from the previous website were not fully integrated, resulting in outdated or inaccurate content on some pages.
Department Headquarters is actively working to fix these issues. Users are encouraged to report errors by providing the page URL and a brief description on our Contact Us page.
The long-term goal is to make the website the primary source of news and information, with frequent updates.
Electronic Newsletter
The American Legion of Iowa’s electronic newsletter is currently released twice a month and serves as a key communication tool for updates, news, and initiatives.
However, we are experiencing technical challenges with email delivery—specifically, issues where newsletters are either not being delivered or are ending up in spam folders.
To address this, the department is exploring new platforms that can improve reliability and ensure better inbox placement. While no specific platform has been selected yet, the goal is to maintain consistent communication and enhance the newsletter’s reach and effectiveness.
Social Media
We currently use only a Facebook page for social media but plan to explore other outlets. Our goal is to provide more relevant information on our page while expanding our overall social media presence.
