Ladies Auxiliary Fall 2009 News Letter
The 2010 year is started so I ask that all members please send in your membership renewals as soon as possible. You can drop it off at the Post attention Kendra Smith. Help our Unit make 100% by December by paying your dues, Thanks. For the ladies if you are not a member of the Auxiliary yet please feel free to join us. It is that time of year again when we start to celebrate with the family the holidays. I ask that you remember our Veterans and those that are on active duty.
As you read this newsletter from the Post you will see that we have a lot of activities going on at the Post in the next months. The biggest will be the Christmas party. The Ladies Auxiliary will be doing the shopping and wrapping of presents for the children again this year. We are asking you to help us by donating a roll of wrapping paper, Ribbon, bows or tape; even a pair of scissors or two for us to wrap the presents with this would be a big help to us. And if you want to have some fun, check with Ana at the Bar to find out when we are scheduled for the wrapping party and join in.
When you are at the Post watch out for the Toys-4-Tots Collection box to show arrive. Let’s help the Marine Corps program be a great success by donating a new unwrapped toy.
Remember our meetings are the Third Sunday of the month at 12:30.
Thank you for supporting the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary and the Programs of the American Legion.
