| JUNIOR ACTIVITIES Junior Auxiliary membership for girls under the age of 18 is a training ground which prepares young women for active adult membership. Junior activities and programs reflect and support the work of the Auxiliary and instill the ideals of the organization. The Junior program is an important step in the transition from childhood to responsible adulthood. At age 18, Junior members automatically are eligible for full, active membership. |

Junior Activities News – January 2012
Hello Juniors and Junior Leaders,
Happy New Year!
It is now the New Year, and time to start your Junior Units in earnest if you have not begun
your projects yet. Remember our veterans first. Volunteering with any project concerning
veterans is a number one priority with JUNIOR UNITS.
By the way, I hope all of you have sent something to Nancy or me concerning anything you
have accomplished thus far, so that I might brag on you at the Mid-Winter Conference in
Vicksburg. The Senior Auxiliary love learning about what the Juniors are up to.
How many new Junior Units have started up, or re-started after being dormant for awhile?
What have the girls been up to? Are they volunteering, helping the Auxiliary out, assisting in
Nursing Homes, visiting returning veterans? Working on Christmas parties, handing out
presents for disadvantaged children, offering poppies? Or just organizing themselves into a
cohesive, functioning Unit? Please tell us, by turning in some reports.
I hope to see many Junior Girls at Vicksburg in January 2012. We're having a Cake Walk
Friday night of Mid-Winter Conference. Please donate a cake from your Unit to help our
efforts to raise money for our Dept. Junior activities.
For God and Country,
Velma Harrington
Dept. Junior Activities Chairman, 2011-2012
