Department President: Janice Sentivany 2024- 2025
Welcome!
I’m very excited as we begin our 2024-25 Auxiliary year. So much is already underway. Units
and Districts are meeting and planning for the upcoming months, our new membership theme,
and our Legion Family participating in more events together. We have Stand Down and our
Program Information Conference later this month. I look forward to visiting and meeting many
more of you throughout the year and to assist you in any way that I can.
We have the greatest group of individuals in CT, you are talented and dedicated to our Veterans
and our Military. It is my honor and privilege to serve as your President for this year. This is
our organization and only together can we accomplish our mission and reach those goals we set
for ourselves. You are the driving force to make things happen. I am here only to oversee
and keep us moving forward. Let’s always remember to put all things in perspective – think
about everything we GET to do rather than we HAVE to do. And let’s work to do it together. Within
our Units, within our Districts, within our Department. Let us be like snowflakes – individual
snowflakes are one of the most fragile creations but when they stick together, they become a
powerful storm. Let us be that storm to support our Veterans. Together we are One Team – One
Mission!
For God and Country,
Janice Sentivany
Department of CT President

Department Senior Vice: Kristin Jones 2024- 2025
Welcome, musicians, to the 2025 membership year!
At convention, the Department Vice Presidents for each District were given a record that symbolized
what genre of music that they are.
District 1 – Country Sweethearts
District 2 –Disco Divas
District 3 – Rowdy Rockers
District 4 – Mo-Town Movers
District 5 – Pop Star Princesses
District 6 – The Mellow Folk
District 7-Reggae Rastafarians.
This year, National is using an Elemental theme with each of the divisions being earth, water, fire, air
and energy. Eastern Division has been designated water which is artistic, creative, sensitive and
loyal. National says, “Together earth, water, fire, air and energy are the building blocks for the growth
and life of membership by leading the way to the North Star.” Together, the Department of
Connecticut can reach National’s first goal of 75% by December 7, 2024- Pearl Harbor Day.
Now is the time to start working on those membership renewals! We will have another membership
parade at PIC. If you have membership, please bring it! Also, at PIC, more information of how we can
reach our goals will be presented and passed out to those in attendance. If you should need help or
have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I thank you all for electing me as your Senior Vice President and allowing me to be your membership
chairman for the 2024-2025 year.
