Are you ready to step into the
Department Line?
The
membership of the Department of California are looking for Members in Good
Standing to come forward as Candidates for the Offices of Department Treasurer
and Department Guard. Department Council
and Delegates will be looking to elect a candidate for these positions at our
Department Convention in June.
What does
"running for this office mean”? Will it
cost me anything to be in the line? Do I
have to know all the bylaws? Must I have
served as an Auxiliary President or District President or Chairman before I can
run for a Department Office? Call on
our Line Officers or Past Department Presidents to gain insight on expectations
of a Line Officer, Obligations, Expenses and Experiences that are involved.
Start
getting your Auxiliary and District endorsements now. We have our January Council meeting coming up
and this is a wonderful opportunity to come and meet the members and perhaps
spend a few minutes addressing everyone at the Council Meeting of you intention
in running for Department Treasurer and Department Guard. Members need to know you. They need to know you are a candidate of your
word. They need to trust you and know
that you are loyal for the good of the good of the organization.
Those candidates
interested in this office, should make every effort to visit the Districts so
the membership can meet you, hear what you have to say, so they may make a
sound decision come June.
Endorsement
Letters must be in the Department Office by May 20th.

Welcome to the California Auxiliary to the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States. We are an organization consisting of fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons, daughters, grandfathers, grandmothers, grandsons and granddaughters of those persons, both male and female, who have honorably served in the Armed forces of the United States. We believe in Americanism, which has been defined as an unfailing love of country; loyalty to its institutions and ideals, eagerness to defend it against all enemies, undivided allegiance to the flag, and a desire to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and posterity.
We serve and support the veterans, active duty soldiers and their families of the United States for they are the ones that put their lives on the line to allow us the daily freedoms we enjoy.
