Deadline for Poppy Poster Contest: May 1, 2025
Poppy Order Form – Due November 1
The Department’s Poppy Program is going well. Poppy orders are being processed for mailing as they come in. If you have not already received your order, I will get them to you as soon as I can.
We are seeking additional Auxiliary members and veterans to assist in assembling poppies. If you would love to be on the poppy assembly team, please give me a call. Directions on how to assemble poppies are also available by calling me. Feel free to email me at poppies@ndala.org.
I attended three Fall District meetings and distributed information on how to make felt poppies as well as our traditional crepe poppies. Information on the 2025 Poppy Poster Contest was also dispersed.

Poppy Order Form– Due November 1st, 2024
Using the image and story of the Flanders Field poppy to educate people about the sacrifices of our military service members helps us raise awareness of the Legion Family and links us to our mission in the eyes of the public.
Local American Legion units shall sponsor contests in local schools. If your school does not conduct activities related to poppies, other youth groups, including junior members, may participate under the direct supervision of the unit.
Other ideas to celebrate and promote the “Poppy” are distributing a bookmark or coloring book.
