Legionnaires:

We had our final nomination of officers at our May 8th meeting:

  

Commander: Ken Rourke
1st Vice:    Bruce Blumenstein
2nd Vice:  John Krop
Sgt.At.Arms: Bob Blume
Chaplain:   Dave McAteer
Historian:  Liz Boschee
  Finance Off:  Bob Markin

                     

The Post Service Officer, Adjutant, Asst. Adjutant and Judge Advocate are appointed by the Commander. 

 

Nominations for the Post Executive Committee are Bob Marley, Wally Mello, Bob Dymerski and Andy Heric.

 

Since all officers ran unopposed, there will be no need to have elections for this coming year.  At the June 12th meeting the Post Adjutant will cast one vote for each nominated officer and the Commander will declare them officially elected.

 

Our annual Golf Tournament was a huge success with 115 golfers participating.  This year we raised approximately $6,800 for our Children and Youth Programs.  A check for $6,000 was presented at our May 8th meeting, to the Sea Cadet Program which the Legion sponsors.

 

I would like to thank the Golf Committee consisting of Bob Markin, Ed Corton, Russ Snyder, John Krop and all the volunteers who helped make this the best tournament to date.  In the newsletter you will see a list of local businesses who supported the Golf Tournament by providing a gift or sponsoring a hole.  Please frequent these businesses and let them know your appreciation for supporting this Legion Program.

 

Our annual Police Awards Dinner was well attended and appreciated by the Police Officers and their families and friends.  Each officer received a plaque and a certificate of appreciation.  A tip of the hat to the Ladies Auxiliary for serving the food and cleaning up afterwards.

 

Our Flag Day ceremony will be held on Saturday June 14th at 11AM.  The canteen will be temporarily closed during the ceremony.
