March Newsletter Correction

 Dear members -

 Page 19 of the March edition of VFW Auxiliary Magazine currently states incorrectly: "Note that Delegates and Alternates to Districts shall be elected at a regular meeting of the Auxiliary held not less than 30 days prior to the District Convention at which District Officers are to be elected.”

 This has changed with latest edition of the Bylaws.

 Per our 2025 Bylaws, Sec. 302-District Meetings and Convention, pg. 33, it reads:

"A. Delegates and Alternates to Districts shall be elected at a regular meeting of the Auxiliary held not less than ten (10) calendar days prior to the District.”

We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
