For the Good of the Order and Safety/Well Being of our Members -- please familiarize yourself with the above ‘Understanding VFW Auxiliary Traditions’ youtube video.

For our monthly meetings:

  • Please enter the Post through the Canteen door.

  • Once in the Post, please enter the meeting room through the inner door which connects the Canteen to the meeting room.

  • Once in the meeting room, please take your seat to await the Opening Ceremonies.

  • Please do not come to the head table before the meeting.  The officers are setting up their paperwork to provide you with an efficient, informative, and orderly meeting.

· Our meeting will begin promptly at 7 PM on the third Wednesday of each month.

· Our Guard will check the door twice during the meeting (at the times designated in our Podium book) to see if anyone is waiting admittance.

· During the meeting, please follow the instructions given in the above video for the proper ways things must be done to be in compliance during our meetings.

· Please do not shout out from your seat during the meeting -- raise your hand to be recognized by the President, and please do not discuss things with your neighbor, creating conversations that are not part of our order of business.

· Please exit the meeting room immediately upon the close of the meeting.

· Please do not come to the head table immediately after the Auxiliary meeting ends.  The Officers will be completing Auxiliary business and organizing their paperwork. 

· Once you exit the room and are in the Canteen area, please do not discuss Auxiliary business in this area (this also applies to other areas/places where people who are not members of our organization can hear the conversation).   

· THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND ADHERENCE TO THESE POINTS!!
