Hello Youth Activities Chairman,
It’s amazing what lovely weather we are still having and the leaves are changing into
beautiful colors. I can’t believe that fall is upon us! I hope that everyone has sent their
entry forms for the Illustrating America Contest to the schools and youth
organizations in your areas for grades K-8. The deadline to your auxiliary is December
15, 2026 and to the state department is on January 15, 2027. All state entries that are
late will not be accepted. All artwork that does not go to national will be available for
pick up at the Mid-Winter Conference in Bend.
I hope that each auxiliary has a lot of success with their art work entries. If you need
help with any youth activities project please reach out to me I would love to brainstorm
with you. I wish everyone a great holiday season.
