The town of Foster is located on Highway 29 about 6 miles west of Elmore City in Garvin County. A post office was first established here on August 12, 1891. This agricultural town once had several churches, general stores and businesses. Today, there are a few homes and a convenience store.

The post office is located at 20188 East CR 1655. It has counter hours Monday-Friday from 7:30 to 11:30am, and on Saturday from 7:30-9:15. The lobby and boxes are available 24/7.

The post office is a one-story concrete block building painted white, with a gable roof. We thought it unique that its identifying name and zip code are painted by hand on the front.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.

A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.

If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
