Membership
We've still not hit the 90% goal, but we're close. That said, I need everyone to push membership, fter all, memberahip is the lifeblood of our organization.
Voter Voice
Folks, I do my part every single day, how about you? We finished the week in 3rd place again, thank you to everyone who every 24 hours make their voice heard.
Speaking of "strength in numbers," here's a prime example that incessant Voter Voic'ing (McKinley 2026) works. In fact, I've had voice confirmation on a few other occasions, so keep up the advocacy.


Be The One Mid-South Roundup
The next big event is our awesome Be The One Mid=-South Roundup. Our Riders have done a fantastic job thus far, but we need everyone who can attend or volunteer to do so. I plan to be there every day, except I'll need to leave one day to attend a high school graduation.

National Legion College Application
The National American Legion College application priocess is now open. Bear in mind, the department leadership will pick the person during the interview process at the upcoming Department convention, but we still need interested Legionnaires to apply.
