From the President:

I hope that everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving.  Following our November Business Meeting, there are two items that I would like to mention:  Upcoming Events and our Membership Renewals.

 

The start time for the Pearl Harbor Observance at the Zaloga Post is 8:30 AM. The program will begin with an Honor A Vet presentation followed by the Pearl Harbor Ceremony. Breakfast will be served following the formal program.

 

The Chief’s Mess at Naval Operations Service Center, Schenectady has invited Chiefs from our Association to attend a Post Holiday Party to be held at the Zaloga Post on Saturday, January 9, 2010.  We have included a flyer in this month’s newsletter.

 

Our 2010 Membership Renewals are going well.  If you have not yet sent in your form, please note that we did not include the cost of the dues on the form that was sent with the November newsletter.  Annual dues are $20.00.

 

In closing, I’d like to thank all of our members for their continued support, both financial and your time and effort that have contributed to the success of our organization over the last year.  Best Wishes to all our Chiefs and their families for a Happy Hanukah and Merry Christmas.  

 

 

Sincerely,

PNCS(SW) Mark Wahl, USN(RET)
