We thank you for considering the Onalaska American Legion for your banquet and catering needs.  Should you have any questions or concerns regarding your contract for the banquet hall, activity center, or beverage options, please contact the Bar Manager at 608-783-3300. To reserve your date, you must have a signed rental contract and a 50% depoist. We do not allow any carry ins.  Should you have any questions or concerns regarding your menu, or any details regarding your event, please contact the catering coordinator at 608-769- 3628.  We can accommodate any event from 50 to 225 people. We can arrange your special day for weddings, birthdays, reunions, anniversaries, graduations, retirement celebrations, memorials, and funerals.

Should the renter choose not to have the Post Auxiliary cater the event, please make sure that your caterer has all the equipment they will need to serve food.  This includes all flatware, paper products-plates, cups, napkins, salt, pepper, and any condiments needed, plus serving utensils, bowls, pans. etc.  The kitchen will be locked and is off limits for the event.  In addition to the rental costs, there is also a charge of $150.00 for an Auxiliary non-catered event.  The banquet room will be set up as requested prior to the event.
