SEPTEMBER
Greetings Brothers & Sisters,
Wow, it's already September! The National Convention was phenomenal - always informative and a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. I'm proud to share that Oregon worked hard throughout the year and was awarded The Circle of Excellence. Cheers to Everyone!
National has introduced a new plan to assist auxiliaries before they face suspension. It's called the Auxiliary Performance Improvement Plan (PIP), This plan is designed for Yellow Flag auxiliaries to help them before they become Red Flag auxiliaries. How do you know if you are a Yellow Flag auxiliary? Utilize the resources in Malta, where you'll find a Healthy Auxiliary Toolkit under Extension and Revitalization. At the end of this article there will be a link to VFW Auxiliary Meetings, Challenges and Solutions, which is a great place to start.
This month our virtual training will focus on Malta Resources. We'll explore these resources and learn how to utilize the training provided. The virtual training will be held on Tuesday, September 9th at 4:00 PM and 8:00 PM. If you'd like to be added to the invitation list, please send me your email address, and I'll send you an invitation. If you can't make the training, a link to the PowerPoint will be accessible on the website after the session.
