Hello to all interested parties. Irene and I
have heard this mourning from Hilde Eldridge. Hilde and her husband
John are the Host's for our reunion.
Hilde told us the dates for our next OP
4 Reunion as follows.
April 24 - 25 - 26 2007.
Ramada Inn
226 North Washington Street
Sumter, South Carolina 29150
Tel? 1 800 - 916 - 1693.
This information is meant as a heads up to our
members. Harry and Vicki plan on sending out an Outpost News Letter
some time soon. I am sure that the above information will be in
the News Letter. Check it out to be sure of the dates..
Be sure to save this information, because there
will be no information in the Lightning Bolt. It is my
understanding that there will be an abbreviated edition
of September's Lightning Bolt. However there
will not be any reports or letters from the Outpost Commanders or other
Officers. I find this to be not a good thing. To me it is a waste of
Association money for printing and postage to mail a News Letter with
little or no information.
For now until I don't know when, the best information will come in
the from your Outpost News Letter. Usually the September Edition of the
LB has information about the National Reunion/Election for September
next year. As per our Bylaws the December Edition of the LB must
have all the information about the upcoming National Reunion. Date,
Location, Hotel Information, Costs etc. Please feel free to pass
this information on, however the above information is hearsay and may
by some miracle be changed. I say this because I am no longer in
the Association Network. Jim Deming
PS If you are anticipating running for National Office next year,
it is not to early to let your OP Commander know. I hope some of
you do plan on running for one Office or another. Now is not to early
to let it be known. I have. I am hoping to run for National
Commander next Year.
