The Chandler American Legion Auxiliary met on Tuesday evening, April 19 with President Patsy Buys presiding. The meeting opened in usual form. Chaplain Audrey gave the devotional and prayer. For old business, the treasurer reported the donations for the Gift Shop and $5 Bill Shower to the State Dept. was not received. The checks were never delivered and they never cleared in the bank. It was assumed that the Postal Service did not deliver them. The Auxiliary voted to try sending the donations to the State Dept. again. It was reported that the yearly reports were filled out and last year’s history was written and both were sent in. The Auxiliary voted to send $50 to Hospice of Murray County. They also voted to send $200 to Samaritan’s Purse. This group is bringing aid to the people of Ukraine. Plans were made to have Poppy Day on Wednesday, May 25 in Chandler. Watch for children distributing poppies. The Memorial Day program is planned for Monday, May 30th. Watch for time in the local newspapers.
For election, it was voted for everyone to keep the same office for the coming year. With no further business, the meeting closed with Audrey giving the closing prayer and the Auxiliary sang “America.” The Legion joined the Auxiliary for lunch served by Mary. The next meeting is Tuesday evening, May 17 at 7:00 pm at the Chandler Community Center. Linda and Patsy are hostesses.
