Auxiliary Corner - September 2024
Welcome Back Auxiliary Members!
I hope you all had a wonderful summer. Now it is time to get back to work! We have a lot happening this year.
October’s Halloween event will be on October 26th this year.
Look for a date soon for our Holiday Basket Raffle. Information will be out soon!
We are gearing up for our annual Breakfast with Santa!! This year’s theme will be Rudolph and it will be an amazing event! Breakfast with Santa will be the second Sunday in December as always! We will be putting together a committee for BWS very soon.
We will be hosting the Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall July 24 thru 28th. A committee will be formed on this event in October. We have a lot of people that are interested in helping out from both our Post and other organizations from our area. We started an early jump on distributing information about the wall. Also, June Gaulin and Pat Tebordo have distributed letters and collection cans to area businesses and the donations are starting to come in. Thank You ladies for doing that! The cost of the wall coming to our Post is over $8000. I have no doubt that we will be able to raise all of that money as we are well on the way to doing so. If you have any questions, concerns, or interests in helping out with this event, please email me at [email protected].
Over the summer, our Bingo kitchen continued with providing our Bingo patrons great service on Fridays. Thank you to all that have donated their time to keep the kitchen running.
We are starting to collect dues for 2025 membership year. Dues are $30.00 same as last year with $8.75 for junior members. If you know of anyone that is eligible to be a junior member, please reach out to their parents. We would love to be able to build our junior membership.
Our monthly meetings will still be the first Tuesday of each month at 6pm (with the exception of November which will be the first Wednesday because of Election Day) Our meeting for September will be September 3rd. We will have a lot to cover at this meeting so hopefully we will have a great turnout.
Thanks again for all you do!
