The Seneca American Legion, Kasal Post 457 will be hosting its annual outdoor “Breakfast in the Park” on Sunday, June 14, 2026. As usual, breakfast is being served under the shelter at Crotty Park on Shipyard Road in Seneca. Serving times for this rain or shine event will be between 8:00 A.M. and 11:30A.M. (or until menu items run out). Breakfast will include pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage links, pastries, juice, coffee, and milk.
In honor of veterans, active duty personnel, and first responders, this year’s breakfast will be FREE TO ALL ATTENDEES. (Freewill donations will be graciously accepted.)
As in the past, the “Memorial Panels” will be available for viewing. These brief biographical summaries describe the military service of deceased area veterans.
In addition to breakfast, the post will be selling and taking orders for high quality U.S. flags, Illinois State flags, and M.I.A. flags in all patriotic sizes.
Tickets for the 7th “Gun Raffle” can be purchased at the breakfast. Drawing for this raffle is planned to be held on or about September 11, 2026.
Guests will be able to visit the LST Memorial honoring WWII shipyard workers and LST veterans.
Post funds are used to help support Kasal Post #457’s yearly commitments to the community. Current projects include funding for future Memorial Panels, Seneca student continuing education scholarships, Seneca High School student participation at Boys/Girls State, decorating veteran gravesites (at three cemeteries), donations to the LaSalle County Veterans Home, gravesite honors for military veterans, maintenance of Seneca’s Memorial Wall, donations to the Seneca Food Pantry, and other community/veterans’ projects.
