WELCOME TO METACOMET POST

Teamwork ~ Leadership ~ Commitment
 
 
 
 

 
VFW Post 1926 serves the towns of Simsbury, Granby, and East Granby Connecticut. The post name is Metacomet VFW Post 1926. We operate out of Simsbury Free Mason Lodge # 36 on Hopmeadow Street next to Libert Bank. As we do not have a dedicated facility we use the Simsbury Free Mason Lodge #36 for our meetings, however, we also use other facilities for functions including local restaurants, Eno Hall, and others. 

Because we do not have a facility, every dollar goes towards our veteran support and community support activities in which we are very active as shown by our many events and projects. One such project is the magnificent Simsbury Veterans Memorial in the center of Simsbury which was a joint project with Simsbury's American Legion Post 84
