Help our Department become 100% plus!
Extra… Extra…. READ ALL ABOUT IT! If we get our 100% plus in membership before February 15, our Department President will be given a $100 gift card from National, she can use on the Mid Winter cruise. WE CAN DO THIS! Please encourage our Auxiliaries to send in those dues. We only need 333 to be 100% plus. Show our Veterans how much we care by making us bigger and stronger.
