Welcome!
.
Winter has been so long and
miserable, it’s nice just to hear, say and think “April”! And with that,
keep in mind that April is Children and Youth Month. Everyone is
encouraged to support and promote all children and youth programs.
Children are our most precious natural resource, as well as the future
of our organization and our country.
March was a busy month for the
Auxiliary. I appreciate the invitations to the Legion birthday dinners,
but vacation to sunny Florida got in the way of most of them. I’m sure
they were all very good.
On March 2nd I attended the
Junior Conference at Lamberton. I always enjoy seeing our young girls
learning how to take part in meetings and learning the correct way to
conduct them. They are the ones who will be taking over in a few years
so please give them all the support you can. New officers were elected.
I know they’ll do a fantastic
job, just like this year’s girls did. If you haven’t already done so,
please remember Honorary Junior President Kirsi’s project with a
donation.
I was able to attend the
Appreciation Rally at the Richfield Post on March 8th. The 2nd District
Auxiliary is about ½ of a percentage point behind the 9th District so
keep working on those memberships. It would be great to end up in 1st
place at the end of the year.
Please note the change of
dates for this year’s convention. The Convention Committee was running
into too many problems, one being housing, so it was decided to move it
to June 6 and 7. It will still be held in New Ulm.
As always, please remember our Veterans, both past and present. Without them, we would not be living in the greatest country in the world.
