Greetings all,
It has been an honor to serve this past year as President. I want to first of all thank my ladies auxiliary for their support, hard work and dedication. I'd especially like to thank Nancy Paddock for being my right hand whenever I needed help she was there for me. It was an absolute pleasure working with the Men's Auxiliary and Post Commander as we were able to accomplish a lot of great things. The ladies auxiliary will be left once again in the very capable hands of Nancy Paddock as she will be our next President. For our upcoming events, We have a Mother's Day Basket raffle going on with some GREAT gift certificates approx value is $155 tickets are available in the canteen please see your bartender. We also have our upcoming Craft and Vendor Fair on Sat. May 9th, please come out to support us. We also have our Poppy Drive coming up and that's always a great day. Once again, thank you for allowing me to serve you, it has been my pleasure.
Respectfully submitted,
Kim Rose
Ladies Auxiliary President
