Ladies Auxiliary to VFW Post 12118 takes the District by storm

According to Rhonda Montgomery past District 13 president with 52 years of service to the Ladies Auxiliary "no one to my knowledge has ever formed a VFW Ladies Auxiliary in such a short amount of time."

The very first meeting of the Ladies Auxiliary to VFW Post 12118 was held March 18, 2012 and the installation of officers ceremony was held just one week later. With 20 members on the roster and more signing up each week "this group promises to be a wonderful community asset."

The announcement was made regarding the amazing achievement and speed with which the Auxiliary was formed at the Sunday April 15, 2012, meeting. Present at the meeting was a representative from  District 13 (which includes 6 counties Amador, Tuolumne, San Juaquin, Calaveras, Merced and Stanislaus) and a representative from the Stae of California. Kathy Smith District 13 President and Shirley Calvert California Jr Vice President were thrilled with the formation and the energy with which the group moved forward.
