Greetings Brothers and Sisters,


I hope you all had a fantastic holiday season! With Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year, and now Mid-Winter, it’s been a whirlwind. Our Mid-Winter Conference is just around the corner—join us in Seaside at the Convention Center on January 17th as we celebrate our Voice of Democracy and Patriot Pen winners.

 

Check out the latest blog from National Chief of Staff, Karlene Beams, for important updates on the PIP program—especially helpful for auxiliaries needing support without suspension.  Extension and Revitalization Blog

 

Virtual training resumes this month! Join me on Tuesday, January 20th at 4:00 pm or 8:00 pm as we explore the three meeting formats from our Podium Book: Traditional, Contemporary, and Roundtable. Bring your questions!

 

Please share these training dates with your auxiliary. Attending and sharing what you learn is mentoring, don’t forget to complete your Mentoring report. We have five more sessions this year, so let me know what topics you’d like to see covered!
