Greetings Brothers and Sisters,

We begin a new year. This year I shall be your Youth Activities Chairman as well as Oregon’s Jr. Vice. I am currently in the process of moving back into my District, so I pray that I will be able to be more active with the Auxiliary.

That being said, Youth Activities can be accomplished in several ways; Sponsoring and working with youth groups, Youth groups supporting our Veterans citations, Patriotic youth award, Patriotism through literacy, Illustrating America. Involve youth in ALL Auxiliary programs. Make your Auxiliary accessible to Today’s youth, and lastly VFW Scout of the Year program. Also, do not forget the R.A.P. cards and Youth Acts of Kindness certificates.
