Auxiliary Luncheon The menu has been picked out, but that is about it.  We do not have any speakers or entertainment lined up yet.  We will have all that information by your next meeting.  This is our election year, so we are working hard to get new officers and people to chair committees.  Suzy Hurtado will be our new president and she has a lot of new ideas and exciting plans for the auxiliary.  

Silent Auction 'LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, Start your Bidding"!  The theme for this year's auction will be the race car again.  Everyone seemed to enjoy the checkered table covers and other decorations.     We will have another giveaway this year.  The ticket for the drawing will be with the registration and attendees will have to fill out the ticket and bring it to the silent auction room for a chance to win.  That got so many people into the silent auction last year that will want to continue to do it again.  Belva has already agreed to let us put the tickets for the drawing and flyer with the registration.  The prize has not been determined yet, but we are contemplating 2 banquet tickets for next year or even reimburse for two tickets this year.    We have had a lot of responses to help with the auction this year.  It appears that will be have plenty of help during the auction.  We are calling them our "Pit Crew".  If you would like to be added to the Pit Crew distribution list,  just let us know.    Patricia Campbell is working hard for the association side and she is a member of our "Pit Crew," so we are coordinating all of our efforts to make this a successful co-event.   

Welcome Table There will be a Welcome Table set up by the registration again this year.  Cathy Pulver has already coordinated this with Dan.   We will be passing out brochures about the auxiliary, collecting for memberships, and we will have some legislative letters available for those that have not signed them yet.  There will be a drawing for new memberships.     

Yellow Ribbon Events The auxiliary set up a table at two of the Yellow Ribbon Events held in Norman this past month.  We passed out brochures about the auxiliary.  Our new purple table cover really stood out and many of the people that came by the table had never heard of the auxiliary.  It was a great opportunity for people to see the auxiliary outside of the state conference.  We plan on being at many of the future Yellow Ribbon Events.
