There will be t-shirts, shirts, electronic cookbook, meals, paperback cookbook, raffles, sweepstakes, calendars (We are still checking into the legalities in the state of Washington. Assuming it's legal I have asked the Past Department Commanders Club to run this fund raiser. There's not time to get it done for 2014 so I planning on running it for the 2015 year. )

Watch this space for updates. Thank you.

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 “Washington Team ‘16”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 “Washington Team ‘16” to be a success. We hope you will agree to be part of our team.

Please return the below information to Carol Prentice, 435 W 1^st St., Cheney, WA 99004-1475.

We’re on board and want to be a member of the “Washington in 2016” Campaign.
