In May we held an election of officers. First, the Auxiliary would like to send thanks and appreciation to our exiting officers for their hard work, time, and dedication that they provided to the Auxiliary. Second, I would like to introduce you to the new officers for Unit 221, they are as follows: President- Connie Ellis; Vice President- Jennifer Leone; Secretary- Becky Beverlin; Treasurer- Tiana Spencer; Historian –Michele Knight.
With the new officers sworn in this June, we bring with us a collective total of 142 years of community service from both our careers and personal community advocacy. This would include teaching and providing nutritional services to school age children, community outreach and recreation, healthcare including our elderly and veteran communities. We also take pride in volunteering in nursing facilities, animal shelters, food banks, and for veteran organizations on our personal time.
We are looking forward to starting this new endeavor in raising money through events and raffles for the Auxiliary charities alongside our group of members.
Of note, we are pleased to announce or latest membership count gives us gold status with the American Legion locally and regionally with 107 members. There is always room for more. Come and join us if you are eligible and see what we are all about!!
Respectfully,
Connie Ellis- President
