Membership Workshop
People, businesses, and even ideas grow when provided the proper nourishment. For a membership organization like the American Legion Auxiliary, one form of nourishment is the motivation, camaraderie, and new strategies provided at our annual Membership Workshop. Membership chairmen, presidents, and secretaries at the department (state) level attend this three-day event hosted every spring at the Auxiliary's National Headquarters in Indianapolis, Ind. Programming is spearheaded by the incoming national president, national membership chairman, and National Headquarters leadership. The primary goal of this event is to prepare participants to lead the charge for engaging, retaining, and recruiting members for the Auxiliary. The more we grow, the more veterans we can serve.

 

Serving under the tagline of “Honoring Our Veterans – Past, Present and Future,” the 2012-2013 National Membership Committee’s focus is to grow the Auxiliary’s membership so that we can continue to serve those who so honorably have served, are serving and will serve our great country in the future.

2012 National Membership Workshop may be added periodically.
