President Massage
November 2014

Hello All,

I would like to start off by thanking Mr. Lou Snow, who has been President of the Mass Minutemen for the past 12 years, and he is starting to move on up to the National level so he has to step down, but don't be alarmed he is one of my vice-presidents. Secondly during the last election there were two members running for the office of President, the first time since the 90's as I understand it. It was a close race between the two. The voter turn-out was impressive. I wish to thank all that voted in the election and congrats to everyone that stepped up to the challenge.

As this season winds down I would like for us all to remember the good times we had together at our rallies and wish those that are heading south a safe trip and enjoy the warm weather while the rest of us attempt to stay warm and dry in the coming months.

As the next season approaches I would like for the members to let me know what would be of interest to you for ideas in up and coming rallies. Please let me know via email or any of my contact numbers. I will start compiling a list over the winter months and start researching different locations for the hosts to hold the event. I hope that the ideas I have, which will be posted in future newsletters, will grab the interest of all members and we will have stand up room only at our functions, the more the merrier as they say.

By the time this is printed in the newsletter we will have been to Tunbridge rally and the Keene NH pumpkin festival. I hope that all those that attended both of these rallies had a great time and wasn't to chilly.

Remember when moving down the roads of the states, that you drive careful, watch out for low limbs, always look up; and drive at a safe speed with the leaves and rain that might be on the roads, they become slippery when wet remember.

One more note of interest; I have started a group page on facebook for those that have it. Just search for Mass Minutemen and should pop up as I don't know who is on facebook, I couldn't invite a lot of members to join.

Well that's enough of my chatter, as most of you know I like to chatter, but I'm afraid I'll run out of newsletter space!
