Corned Beef Dinner for $8 at VFW 755 on March 8, 2020.  Proceeds go to the Vietnam Hero Dinner on March 29, 2020.  Come on down and join VFW 755 for a little bit of that Springfield Hospitality. There will be plenty of food, Irish drink specials, and the Central Illinois Irish dancers will showcase their skills. All proceeds will go to the Vietnam Veterans appreciation dinner in March. It’s a great way to give back to those who served.
