At 1 p.m. President Carolyn ….
At 1 p.m. President Carolyn van Aalst opened the regular meeting introducing the second special guest and Girls State representative, Dana Kim. Kim is a senior at Los Alamitos High School who came with a great Powerpoint presentation to display many pictures of her week in Sacramento. She not only gained the experience and greater understanding of the local government, but made some true and lasting friendships.
Last but not least, the club welcomed and honored Ellen Brannigan. Brannigan was a Girls State representative in 1950 and currently lives in Mutual 14. This program has been a regular part of the National Auxiliary's Americanism curriculum since 1948.
Special thanks to Eileen Davis for joining and signing for the group as they sang “America.”
LW’s American Legion Unit 327 was named first out of the five Southern California counties for attaining the membership goal.
