		Greetings Auxiliary Members! THE BEST IS YET TO COME! We may be in a pandemic, but the resourcefulness of our Auxiliaries is both encouraging and inspiring, Look around you and see the efforts auxiliary units are accomplishing to extend our history of continuing to help Marines, veterans' community, and family. Each unit has unique methods of promoting their individual group ideas to complete the tasks started by those individuals who paved the way and had the courage and foresight to launch the Marine Corps League Auxiliary, Inc, in August of 1937. Across this great nation, Auxiliaries are stepping up to the plate and helping from Louisiana, Michigan and Florida to just name a few. The PNP Norma A Liner Unit in Louisiana is helping with hurricane relief by raising funds with the League, a big undertaking for a new unit. A Michigan Unit produced a short tribute video honoring Veterans which they posted on Facebook, and a Florida Unit is promoting working together to help keep their unit and detachment strong. Great job ladies! What is your unit doing? Share your successes! This is your Auxiliary! Help us spread the word of all the wonderful things your unit is doing. If we promote our auxiliary and the accomplishments, more ladies will want to join us. On the 5th of September, the Spring Hill Unit and Detachment held a flea market. It was successful for both organizations. I enjoyed being part of this fund-raising effort. More importantly was the camaraderie of the two groups working together for a common goal. The result was the Unit gaining 5 new members initiated on September17th. Welcome to our wonderful organization, Ladies! The League's meeting on the evening of the 17th was very successful. Thank you form the officers to rhir members and the auxiliary. The oldest member, Marine Carl Carp (95 years young), stated "this is the best Detachment, and we appreciate the Auxiliary and what they do to help." National Headquarters is in good hands with our new secretary. Ramona is adapting well to the office tasks. This is our busiest time of the year, and there is much to do and learn. She has shown dedication and resourcefulness. The cup are are in and can be shipped out... order yours today! Our previous secretary, Karen Grady, is a new associate member and will continue to produce our newsletter, Thank you, Karen. Check out the changes on the website. The new display of the Ship's Store items is posted. Please note the new mailing address on the order form. The National Board approved the National Roster for 2020-21 on September 1, 2020. The Board of Directors is an awesome group of dedicated ladies working for you, the member! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO! Success is built on the dreams of those who seek to serve others!
