Welcome Members and Members to be 6/12/01

Our Agenda:
How do you become a Member?
A.) To be a member you must logon to the Web Page and sign the Guest Book Once
B.) You should communicate with the Administrators, Tony DiPaulo, or Tony Audino, or Danny Hogan, or Jim (Duke) Kolasinski..
C.) You should pay your dues.


And Now for the Rest of the Story

1.) The Membership dues are not for the Picnic, again Not for the Picnic. The Picnic is free!! Its B.Y.O.S(Bring your own stuff). The dues are for expenses incurred creating the Website, funding for Events, Mailings, and other expenses. For Ex: The mailing of this Letter. Soon we will have an accounting of all funds on the website. For example some of the funds are going to be used for the picnic games for the kids Ex:supplying prizes for the games, ballons , little toys stuff like that.
2.) We need Volunteers for: Setting up Future Events, Writers for Communications to Members and also WebMasters, and Administrators. For Ex: Pete Ragusa will be working with Tony Audino to set up a Photo Album with pictures from the last re-union and of the upcoming Picnic. Also Robin Miller suggested small profiles for the Members(Ex: Where are they now!) We also need some volunteers to come with ideas for the games at the Picnic and also to run and setup the games.
3.) What we are trying to do is setup an ongoing dialog and communication method to reach all of our members. EX: Bithdays, Deaths, Illnesses, anything you might care to pass along to all the members. And remember the dues are what pays for these things.
4.) Everybody !!! lets make a concerted effort to get logged in to the site, the most important part is to make sure you sign the Guest Book. This is the only way everyone knows you were here. We need to know that what we are doing is acceptable and what everybody wants. We cannot plan an event if we cannot predict with some confidence how many people will be interested and will participate. For Ex: an idea was proposed that we have a Dinner/Dance in November.
