The National Postmasters Auxiliary was established in 1967 with the common goal to help the Postmasters. The Auxiliary supports, promotes, and protects Postmasters concerns, while providing the Postmasters spouse, family, friends and retired Postmasters with an organization of friendship and fellowship. Sharing concerns, building good public relations for the Postal Service, generating new ideas and having fun together all make our work more interesting, worthwhile and rewarding.

The Colorado Branch of the National Postmasters Auxiliary was chartered in 1971. Since that time, Colorado has been one of the most active state branches in the nation. Many of the members have held state offices, and continue to be involved in the Auxiliary after leaving office. The Colorado Auxiliary usually boasts a membership roster of 100-125 persons. Membership in the Auxiliary consists of Branch Members who are the family of an active Postmaster or Retired Postmasters, the spouses, sons, daughters, father, mother or grandchild. Associate Members are any persons supportive of the National League of Postmasters including Postmaster-in-law, nieces, and nephews, employees of the League of Postmasters and their family members, and special friends of Postmasters. B.R.A.T.S. are auxiliary members between the ages of six and 21. B.R.A.T.S. stands for “Bringing Real Attributes to Society”.

The support of the National Postmasters Auxiliary and the Colorado Branch Auxiliary to the National League of Postmasters is invaluable. We make the League, the only family supported Postmaster organization! Postmasters need all the support they can get on postal concerns. Auxiliary members can rally community support, promote postal concerns, and keep in touch with Congressional Representatives on Postal issues.

Behind the scenes, the Auxiliary works to ensure that League functions run smoothly and that a good time is had by all. The Colorado Branch hosts the annual Ice Breaker Event at the State Convention. Some of these activities have included planning tours, shopping, fishing, or just plain relaxing. By becoming a member of the Colorado Postmasters Auxiliary, you will learn about our organization, and how we support the National League of Postmasters. Most importantly, you will make new friends and be sharing great fun and fellowship.
