DC Conference
- March 23-26, 2014 | Washington, D.C.For more than 30 years, American Legion Auxiliary members have made their presence known
in our nation’s capital. Joining fellow members of The American Legion Family, we learn about
our veterans' needs and the legislative priorities of The American Legion, then we visit Capitol
Hill to encourage our country’s lawmakers to pass legislation that protects veterans’ rights and
provides for their needs. By attending the Washington DC Conference, we learn how to be bette
r advocates for those we serve.
During this event, we also present the Auxiliary's Public Spirit Award honoring an outstanding
individual or organization that positively impacts communities through service to our military,
veterans, and their families.
Team Washington February Report
Team Washington was out in full force at the Department
Mid-winter Executive Committee Meeting.
Those members of the American Legion, American Legion Auxiliary, Sons of
the American Legion and the Legion Riders were there and promoting our
candidate for National President in 2016, Mary Davis. Unfortunately Mary couldn’t join us because
of a commitment to the National Organization in Indianapolis.
With the help of the members of this committee,
especially Mike and Laura Bondurant of Spokane, we had about $1000.00 in sales
of the products we have for sale or raffle.
The t-shirts are in. They are
black polo shirts with the logo on the front and back and Commander Davidson
has authorized them to be the “Department” shirts for the next four years. They will be selling for $25.00 and can be
ordered through Hanny Elston, Lorna Leodecek or Phyllis Chritofferson.
Eva Wallace gave us an overview of the Homecoming being planned in October 2016 for Mary and she really wanted to emphasize that the Department of Washington Family be there in full force. Everyone is invited to join in the festivities. More on this activity as we go along. There is an Amish Blanket Chest to be offered that was donated by Tom Thoreilson, 3 quilts made by Vince Schmitt, 72” round pineapple design crocheted tablecloth handmade by Rose Ring. All tickets being offered by Phyllis Christofferson or Lorna Ledoschuk. I understand there is a competition to see which items sells the best. These will be drawn at the END of Department Convention 2014 in Vancouver and the winner will be notified.
Mike
and Laurie also will have a 13” flat screen TV and picnic basket being offered
this year. These will be drawn for at
the end of the Department Convention. Don’t
forget to get your recipes to Jan Sperry of Lake Stevens so she can get the

Can We Count On You?
Have you heard the exciting
news? After over 50 years, the Washington
American Legion family has a candidate for the high position of National
President of the American Legion Auxiliary.
During the Auxiliary 2016-17 administration, our own PDP Mary Davis will bring honor to us all when
she steps up to serve our great organization as its National President.
As we have come to realize, the challenges
of making the dream of a National President from the Department of Washington a
reality are many and varied. This
endeavor will be costly and requires support from throughout our
Department. We are writing to you today to
invite you to join us and be a part of our “Team Washington”Campaign. All Posts, Units and Squadrons are
being invited to be a part of this historical event by supporting Mary’s
candidacy. This is no small task, as we
need to raise between $60,000.00 and $80,000.00 over the next couple of
years. It is our hope that Districts,
Units, Posts, Squadrons and other groups will host fund raising events to help
us achieve that goal.
We will be sharing information about
the varied events being held and provide ideas that may help you develop your own
local fund raisers. Be sure and check
frequently on the activities associated with this campaign at “MaryDavis” on https://www.facebook.com/ and on our blog at http://aladaviscampaign.blogspot.com/
.Please provide information about your
planned events with Campaign Chairman Carol Prentice and she will coordinate Candidate
Mary’s attendance. If Mary is not able
to attend, then members of the Executive Steering Committee may be able to join
you.
The support of all members of the
Department of Washington Legion Family is essential for “Team Washngton” to be a success. We hope you will agree to be part of our
team.
