Attention all AMVETS Riders:
Many of you have heard that AMVETS Riders members who are AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary will be required to register with their parent organization (Ladies Auxiliary) before registering with the Riders for convention in the future.
It is already and has been a requirement for those who are AMVETS to register with their parent organization.
In following this requirement, it will now be required for Auxiliary members to register with the Ladies Auxiliary.
Lady AMVETS Riders who are Auxiliary members will need to show proof of Auxiliary registration when checking in at the Riders registration desk.
We always encourage all AMVETS Riders members to support their parent organization and attend those meetings as well as the meetings of the AMVETS Riders while at convention.
The rule will not only apply to National convention but for your SECs as well.
Please see below rule from AMVETS National Ladies Auxiliary Executive Director.
Please extend this information to all of your AMVETS Riders members who are Ladies Auxiliary.
Thank you. 
Below is the change to the National Auxiliary Standing Rules at the 2018 National Convention in Orlando, Florida.

Good day all!

In order to expedite the process of getting information out to the Riders Nation, I have had to upgrade my email service causing me to create a second email.

You may still use the old one but, when I send out an email, they will mostly now come from the additional email:

amvets.rnco@outlook.com

If your settings are such that it does not recognize this server, please allow emails from the new email.

I am getting several back stating that the receiving email is rejecting my email as spam.

Please check your spam folder as I just sent out an email to all officers.

Thank you and if you have any questions please ask.

Thank you!
