American Legion Auxiliary

The American Legion Auxiliary meeting on April 18 focused on the election of officers and creating a list of volunteers for any of the chairmanships. The chairman for any committee is a volunteer position, and the Auxiliary asks any interested members to come forward. Anyone who wants to hold a board position must come forward to have his or her name put on the ballot. A member can also nominate someone else for a board position. There must be enough names on the ballot and list in order to hold an election. For more information, call Jean Sudbeck at (562) 594-0209.

The Department of California President Dee Ann Graham was a guest at the last district meeting. She spoke about the upcoming yearly Convention in Visalia. She also noted the importance of reporting Legion activities. Since the American Legion is sponsored by Congress for the purpose of helping veterans, Congress needs to know the impact the American Legion has on veterans and their families.

The next meeting will be held on Monday, May 16, in Clubhouse 3, Room 1, at 1:30 p.m.
