Colorguard
The Color Guard is one of the uniformed groups in the Legion and serve as the American Legion's "display cases", so to speak. At Parades, Funerals and special events, they advertise the Legion's size, scope and substance to the public at large; they are one of the finest opportunities for post public realtions. They afford those involved a sence of accomplishment, and a great deal of satisfaction and enjoyment.

COLOR GUARD ANNUAL TRIP TO PERRY POINT
In December 2021, the color Guard of Synepuxent made its annual trip to the Perry Point Medical Center where in the passed they handed out hoodies and heated socks to the residents. This ear they passed out 200 pairs of gloves to the vets who surely needed them to help keep warm in the winter.
