January 30, 2008


This past weekend, the officers of the Auxiliary attended the Mid-Winter Conference for the Department of New York. Over 500 members from around the state were in attendance. Our National President, Jan Pulvermacher-Ryan was a special guest.
We met many inspiring women with fresh ideas to promote the many programs of the Auxiliary.
We will be sharing these ideas with our members and try to implement them. Our Department of New York President, Carol Johnson, has set a goal to provide funds for a Snoezelen Room for each of the five New York State Veterans' Homes. This therapy room is designed to calm, relax or stimulate a person with brain injury, dementia, behavioral and mood disturbances caused by physical conditions. The goal is to serve veterans with fewer drug solutions.
