I would like to wish everyone in the Legion Family a very happy and enjoyable Memorial Day Week-end. Don't forget our Parade at 9:00 AM, starting at the Cicero Cemetery and the Ceremony and Open House at the Legion following the ceremony up at the Monument. There are a few great events coming up at the Legion, a dance in the Pavilion on July 22nd, with Papa Joe's Band, food and drink for sale, also a Beach Party, also in the Pavilion on August 4th, sponsored by the Auxiliary and Sons, both events sound great, more info to follow. Check the bulletin board. Also the biggest event is the Clamfest on June 30th. So mark your calendars for a lot of fun. Today is Armed Forces Day, and we have an Open House from 1 PM ‘til 4 PM, hope you all attend, we will have refreshments. Also, our Installation Banquet for all new officers will be on Sunday, June 3rd. A sign-up list will be posted. Congratulations to all new incoming officers, and a great big THANK YOU to all the Executive Board staff who have helped me over the last two years, it has been a wonderful experience and I am truly grateful for having served as Commander for the Legion. Also, the Legion Family with their leaders has been a tremendous help, keep up the good work. Good luck to Mark Adams and his new Executive Board. Take care everyone, there is a lot to enjoy around the Post, so please come in, volunteer and enjoy your Post. Pat

The new 2012 membership cards are here, so be on the

lookout for your renewal notice. Anyone who hasn’t received a re-

newal letter please let me know ASAP. If you have a new address let

me know so I can get your renewal out to you. Remember you can-

not drink at the Legion if you do not have a current card. I will give

the list of unpaid member to the bartenders and they will not serve

you until you pay your dues. We still have a few sons’ emails that

are not working. If you are not getting yours by email please let me

know. Anyone who is not receiving your news letter via e-mail

please drop me a note and we will get it fixed. Please send in your

dues so we can reach 100% before December. We still have 34 who

have not renewed yet. Those not paid to date are: R Audley, P Bazydlo, J Buffum, T Cassell, F Chmarak, K DeMott, K Ehr-linspiel, D Engle, D J Fleming, C Gates, C Guiles, R Hanner, M Herholtz, R Hierholzer, C Jones, A Lamb, D LaPlante, K Lauducci, T Marfrici, J Mercu-rio, D Miller, J Miller, T Moorhead, G Nash, D Osbeck, T Pelkey, R Pop-lawski, J Shepard, R D Smith, T Teska, R Trapnell, W Westcott.

Attention all sons we have the third Wednesday night bin-

go at the legion. We need more help 3-7:30. We need help with set

up as well as in the kitchen.

We need more sons to attend our meetings we have a busy

year ahead of us. We will be taking more shirt orders for anyone

wishing to order one see Bill or sign up on sheet at legion.

If any son’s member would like anything put in our news

please let me know. You can leave me a note in our mailbox or call

me 679-8361 and we will get it in the newsletter. We would like to

see as many sons attend these meeting so we can get some new ideas

of things to do. We have a very busy year ahead so please come and

help.

Here is a list of the next few meetings. THEY START AT 7:00,

NOTE THEY ARE ON TUESDAYS NOW. The next meeting will

be May 22,

I would also like to extend my thanks to all of the Sons who

have helped with our fund raisers. There seems to always be the

same few members who help. The raffle for the kindle fire to be

drawn on Memorial Day tickets are available at the bar or any son’s

member. The annual cash raffle to be drawn at clam fest will soon be

underway. I would like to see as many sons at our Memorial Day

celebration as possible. We hope to do more fundraisers like this

soon and hope to get the same amount of help it really goes smoother

with more help thank you. The sons are also looking at putting on a

breakfast for the bass master tournament as soon as we get a date

more info to follow.

Lastly and most importantly everyone keep the 427th Bri-

gade in your prayers and thoughts. Some of these troops are our own

members.

I’m looking forward to seeing you around at the post and

our meetings.

Thank you,

Bill Bell

Well – this will be my last article as President of

the Ladies Auxiliary. It has been a very good

year and I’m very pleased with everything the

Auxiliary has accomplished. It has become a

very strong organization and I only hope it con-

tinues to be so. I have enjoyed my year, but am

looking forward to sitting back!

My sincere congratulations to Linda Jackson as

elected President. Linda has been an asset to

our organization ever since she joined and I

know she will do an excellent job in her new po-

sition. Please support her as you have supported

past presidents.

Thank you all again for allowing me to serve as

your President. It has been a pleasure and I’m

not going to disappear. Everyone have a won-

derful and safe summer.
