APRIL
April showers bring May flowers. We should
have quite the show come May with all the wet weather we have been having.
April is the beginning of our new program
and Auxiliary and District elections. Busy, busy, busy. Please get your
year-end reports to the Department Chairman ASAP. They have a lot of work to do
closing out the program year. Don’t forget those National Award forms as well.
Your Auxiliaries have worked hard this year, and you deserve to be recognized
for it.
Elections. What a great time of year! It is
fun to welcome new officers and see some of the previous officers take on new
roles. Your installation reports are due immediately after your installations.
Don’t wait until the last second to get them done and turned in. You can easily
compete the form in MALTA but please be sure to send a hard copy of the report
to our Department Secretary as well. If you have any questions or issues,
please reach out to our Secretary, Chief of Staff or to President Deb. We are here
to help.
This time of year, has me looking forward
to our Department Convention. It is exciting to get together with all our
Brothers and Sisters from around the state. Our convention this year is in
Pendleton, Oregon at the beautiful Pendleton Convention Center. Save the dates,
June 19th-22nd. We will have a C of A on Wednesday, June
18th at 7pm. All are welcome to attend but remember, only Counsel
members may vote.
Information about the convention can be
found on our Department Auxiliary website at, www.vfwauxor.org or the Department Post
website at, www.vfwor.org. You will find information about the meals
being offered and information about the concert. (Yes, there is a concert!)
Please sign up by June 1st.
Until next month, take care and stay dry.
(As I look out my window at the gray skies and rain coming down.) I can’t wait
to see you all in June.
