AERIE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Salutation Brothers,
Spring is almost here and the weather is starting to warm up. Almost time to start saving daylight. March will be a very busy month. We start with: - Eastern Zone Conference Mar 6-7
- Pub Crawl Mar 14
- 40TH Anniversary Mar 23 (with a visit from the Grand Worthy President
- State Pool Tournament Mar 27-29 North Platte I again want to thank all the officers, trustees, auxiliary members, and the volunteers who make all this possible. Without your help, it would not happen.
Still a concerning issue is the vacant officer and trustee positions. These positions are very important to us because we are trying to do everything with less people. Nominations for next year's officers and trustees will be coming up soon.
Larry Owens, Aerie President
AUXILIARY PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Thanks for all you do helping us be better!

MARCH "MADNESS" IS BEGINNING AT THE AERIE
There are many events during this busy, fun month!!
We are in desperate need of volunteers.
There are a lot of events coming up that we
need help with--in the kitchen, set up and tear down, checking ID's and bar backs for the Pub
Crawl. Just to name one event. On St Patty's Day we will be needing help in the kitchen throughout
the day. We have our 40th Anniversary Party and hopefully a few outdoor events. Sign up at the
club; for the Pub Crawl, there is also sign-up sheet attached.
You can also volunteer by calling 402-292-6950 and leaving a message on ext 2. Or just come
down and visit and we can help you sign up. It is a great way to make new friends and we always
have a great time while helping out.
Remember a club made of volunteers needs volunteers to make it work
Thank you
