American Legion North Cobb Post 304 was chartered and incorporated in 1991 as a patriotic veteran’s
service organization devoted to mutual helpfulness, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service members, veterans and the communities of Acworth and Kennesaw.

The American Legion Auxiliary has been dedicated to serving veterans, military and their families for nearly 100 years. Auxiliary members exemplify Service Not Self through countless volunteer hours, programs, conferences and an increased presence in Washington, D.C. Although things have changed since the American Legion Auxiliary’s establishment in 1919, the one thing to remain the same is our member’s unwavering commitment to honor those who serve.
