Dear Auxiliary members,
Summer is nearing its end and we are getting closer to school opening for the students. This is a good time for us to put together Patriotic Back to School Packets. We have our Auxiliary Programs that we can glean ideas from. The VFW Store has Patriotic school items. Local stores are having school supply sales.
Let’s instruct our youth by example. Share our Countries History in creative, fun ways that our children will remember for a lifetime.
Looking
at the month of September, we have a number of Special Days to remember and
celerate. To show our Patriotism &
Love of God & Country.
