Notes from the Department Secretary

The 5"x 8" post card is to remind the Auxiliary members to pay their dues.  All it says is, Have you renewed your membership yet?  If not, please send your 2010 dues now by simply:

        1.  using the previous mailed renewal notice.

        2.  contacting your local Unit, or

        3.  contacting your Department Headquarters at:

                        Department of Alaska

                        1392 6th Ave

                        Fairbanks, AK 99701

                        907-455-4420

 

If members call and don't know what Unit they belong, it is an opportunity to answer their questions, share information and benefits of membership, and help them learn more about our mission and how to get involved.

 

"Communication is Key!" Notices by mail are good reminders, but that personal phone call can make our members feel important and wanted!  So let's pick up those phones and get those members that haven't renewed!  Department has been receiving a lot of phone calls from the postcard notice.

 

Membership is low and you will need to get membership to me by March 10th as I have to cut membership off 30 days before Department Convention.  Alaska wants to make 100% by May 15th!  

 

Congratulations to the Auxiliary and the Legionnaires who produced a very nice Southeast District Convention.  The weather was beautiful, and we were entertained every night by the Totem Bar next door to the hotel.
