NAPS Auxiliary: Down Through the Years
By Felecia Hill
NAPS Auxiliary Southern Region Vice President
As I look ahead with great excitement to the 69th NAPS National Convention at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT, I think of how well the Auxiliary and NAPS have worked together through the years, especially on legislative goals.
In March, NAPS and the Auxiliary assembled for our annual Legislative Training Seminar in Arlington, VA, at the Crystal Gateway Marriott. At LTS, goals for SPAC are made and accomplished.
SPAC is our voice on Capitol Hill. Our political action committee provides the funds to advocate for NAPS’ legislative agenda on Capitol Hill when we physically cannot be there. Again this year, with the help of NAPS, the Auxiliary was able to raise nearly $9,000 for SPAC.
We truly appreciate NAPS for its assistance. Together, we had another successful LTS that ended with our visits to Capitol Hill. There, we met with legislators and expressed our views and desires.
Throughout the years, the Auxiliary has stood by NAPS as it works to secure beneficial legislation, promote the welfare of supervisors and participate in legislative work. We also work on increasing membership so we have strength to support our organizational goals. I sum it up like this:
At their beginning NAPS members were a few,
Then they grew and they became strong. Then came the Auxiliary to help them along.
Members came from afar to convention towns,
But you know that Auxiliary; they still stayed around.
Down through the years, through uneven tides,
NAPS stood firm, with the Auxiliary by their side.
On Capitol Hill from Congress to the Senate
Goes NAPS + the Auxiliary and our views are presented.
NAPS, you have had struggles and the Auxiliary has too,
But we remain steadfast and we do what we must do.
With all the rough waters we have been through,
NAPS, we are still here; we remain here to support you!
