Deer Valley #3871 Presidents

From: Worthy President

Pete MacKinnon: Brothers and Sisters DV Eagles 3871:

No Message from your President

From: Madam President

Lisa Crockett:

Brothers and Sisters:

First of all, I would like to thank all of our

Auxiliary Officer’s and our Auxiliary team for

attending and helping out in the kitchen

during our State Visitation on Saturday March

14th with the help of Jimmy LaRocca too.

Food was Great and the servers did a

fabulous job! Worthy President Pete and I

chose Terry and Pam Osborn for our Mr. &

Mrs. Eagle award for this year. I was sad to

see that only the Worthy Chaplin John Logan

and Worthy Conductor Michael Wadding

were there to support the Aerie Officer’s.

On another note, I would also like to thank

John Hall and his team for the Heart Fund

that raised over $4,000.00. Great job!!

Don & Cindy Magee will be our host for

Jimmy Durante Fund in April, and they have

a lot of fun things planned. Come and check

it out! Also, April 18th Terry and Jenny will be

renting the hall and having a benefit helping

out our very own Mr. and Mrs. Eagle (Terry &

Pam Osborn) with all their medical bills that

Madam President continued:

have occurred. They will be having food,

50/50’s, shots, raffle and auction items too.

This will be starting at 3 pm. Raffle and

Auction items needed.

By for now and Happy Easter to All.

Special Message from Auxiliary

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH

For APRIL 2020 Our April Volunteer is Richard (Dickie) Mills.

He has helped with both the Aerie’s and

Auxiliary food functions when asked. He

helped set up the social room for State

Visitation, burger night, taco Tuesdays and

Thursday Charity dinners. He is on the Golf

Tournament charity. Thank you, Dickie for

everything you do and your volunteer spirit

for the Fraternal Order of Eagles 3871.

Side note on Volunteer of the Month:

Please respect the person selected as

Volunteer of the Month and leave their

parking space OPEN. They are chosen for

all they do for this club and just because it

may be empty when you come in, they may

be right behind you continuing their hard work

for the club. Please respect them by keeping

it open for them. They earned it! Vehicles will

be towed at the owner’s expense.

AERIE TRUSTEE’S SUGGESTION BOX

The Trustees don’t mind helping when it

comes to getting suggestions in the

Suggestion Box, located in the rear hallway,

next to the Trustee’s Office. OH, please

sign your complaint, situation, incident or

suggestion if you wish to hear a response to

it. We have received several suggestions

and good ones too and we can’t respond to

them because they were not signed.

Thank You.

Touch of Humor

Thelma had just started down the sidewalk

when her friend Janet came around the

corner and barreled into her at high speed.

“Slow down, Janet! What’s your hurry?”

“Well,” puffed Janet, “I read that bee stings

can help ease arthritis, so I went out and

threw a rock at a big hive in a tree. And then

they all started chasing me.”

“Must have worked,” said Thelma. “I haven’t

seen you move that quickly since 1974!”

A Touch of Life

One Sunday morning, a man was pulled over

by a motorcycle cop for speeding. As the

officer asked the driver for his license and

registration, passing motorists would slow

down, then honk and wave.

After about the twelfth driver passed by,

honking and waving, the officer asked the

speeder what was going on. The driver told

him, “I am the minister at the church a mile

down the road. That’s where I was going

when you stopped me. The members of my

congregation recognized me.” The officer

smiled and tore up the ticket. “I think you’ve

paid your debt to society,” he proclaimed.

Hello all and welcome to April! Where does

the time go actually? At this rate next week

it’ll be Christmas already but here we are. I

know it’s been awhile since I have wanted to

put something, anything into the news but I

have to ask, once again, why doesn’t anyone

utilize our Web Site?

Statistically, these pages are viewed by

between 250 and 400 people monthly on a

regular basis! Want to know what has been

updated and added weekly? My consistent

updates of the King of Hearts Game.

How is that, in almost 10 years since these

web pages themselves were uploaded that

no one is taking advantage of this FREE

advertising to inform others of our upcoming

events we have on a monthly schedule? Isn’t

this why we have planning meetings for

charities and events?

Contributing is quite easy as well. Send to me

your fliers, event details and any information

you’d like to have added to me either by

emails to fwferris@cox.net or you could leave

your information for me right here at the club

and I’ll pick it up. Once received, your

information will be posted on our “Events”

pages with links directly on the “Home” page

for inquiring minds and the world to see!

When writing to me or leaving packages

please include your contact information,

(Name, Telephone Number and Email

Address) so that if I have any questions, we

can complete the process together. For right

now I am limiting this type of “advertising” to

us here at 3871 only. This may change over

time where a nominal fee may be charged to

other groups for inclusion on our pages and

all monies received will be contributed to

whatever our “Charity of the Month” will be at

the time.

Again, this in the early stages and more

information will become available on how to

advertise with us as I develop these types of

pages including a “Buy Advertising Now” and

the “Donate to Charity Now” buttons.

As always, I’m looking to help you in any way

that I possibly can. This here is a great start

when YOU alert people and OUR members

of exactly what’s coming up and what’s going

on here at F.O.E. #3871. Looking forward to

hearing from you. Have a great month!
