Newsletter – April 2015

Auxiliary Vice President- Linda Nenno

After the last 3 months, March was relatively quiet. We hosted our Veterans for dinner and held our monthly bake sale. We had a good turnout for Bunco both times this month. Come join us on the 2nd Thursday at 1:00 and the 4th Tuesday at noon. We have a great time, and it’s a nice fundraiser for the Auxiliary.

Our “Books for the Schools” program is going great. We have started purchasing books about Veterans, the Wall, Service Dogs, and the Poppy Lady, and reading them at the schools. Then we are donating them to the school libraries. We’ve had more than generous donations from members who have purchased books in memory or in honor of loved ones or friends.

As always, we continue to support Legion activities such as weekly dinners and karaoke. We also helped organize a baby shower for Nichole which was well attended. That is going to be one lucky baby girl. She received a carload of wonderful gifts.

Things to look forward to in April:

April 1—Lasagna Dinner for Veterans

Bunco—April 9, at 1:00 and 28, at noon.

April 15– Please plan to join us at the post to honor Ginny Lucero as Volunteer of the Month. She really works hard for the Auxiliary and the Post.

April 16, 10:30 Executive meeting. Anyone is welcome to attend.

April 18, 10:30 General membership meeting

Auxiliary Vice President- Linda Nenno

Even though February was a short month, the Auxiliary was really busy, as usual.  Many of us attended the Super Bowl party, and had a good time.

We hosted 8 Veterans for a beef stew/cornbread dinner on the 4th.  It seemed like they stayed later to dance and sing this month.

9 of us attended the Mid-Year conference in Albuquerque, where we got to meet and visit with the National President, Janet Jefford. It was great to see our Unit so well represented. Department Commander, Paul Espinoza held his homecoming celebration that weekend also.

We had a very nice turnout for Bunco on the 12th.  Some new faces and we filled 4 tables.  It is always fun, so come join us, and bring your friends.  You do not have to be a member to play.

We had a record amount of baked goods at our Valentine Day bake sale.  We made around $270.  Thank you to all the bakers, workers and especially the buyers. Everything was decorated for the holiday, and the table looked great.  Our Valentine dinner that night was also a success, serving 80+ meals.  Thanks to Deone Harty and Linde Polstin for manning the photo booth.

The Legion auction on the 21st was well attended.  Thank you to everyone who donated items for this event, and to those who came and spent your money.  We had a lot more items than we expected, and the auction went on for 2 hours, and everything sold. The Soup supper on Sunday, the 22nd, was also a success with 10 soups to choose from.  Thank you everyone.

Thank you to those who have renewed for 2015. The dues are still $30/year, and help us continue the programs that serve Veterans and their families.  Membership is our most important program, since without members, we cease to exist.  Tell your non-member friends about us, what we do and encourage them to join if they are eligible.  Carry a membership application in your purse.  You, as a member, know we have some really good things going on at the Post, and we always have a lot of fun, so spread the word.  As of February 20, we have 349 paid members, which puts us at 84% of our final goal. Remember, door cards change January 1, 2015 and you will not be able to get a new one without a 2015 card.
