Reminding you of next monthly RMNA Luncheon at the American Legion Post, 5400 East Yale, Denver (southeast corner of I-25 and Yale), on Wednesday, September 5th, gathering around 11:30 a.m.
See You There! This newsletter is posted online to our website at (www.navrescolorado.org) and Facebook page at (https://www.facebook.com/RockyMountainNavyAssociation/)
From Our RMNA President: As suggested/hinted at by several of you, we will have a backyard get together on Sunday, September 9. It will be in our backyard, 2345 Elm Street, starting at 5 p.m. Am asking all those coming to bring a plate of hors d’ oeuvres for passing. Wine, beer, soft drinks provided. Invitations will go out in about a week. We will have our regular first Wednesday of the month luncheon on Wednesday, September 5, 2018. Usual place and time. Right now, we have CAPT Rob Scofield handling speakers for our monthly luncheons, CAPT Ron Service handles our dues and money, CAPT Dick Wilson handles our arrangements with the American Legion Post #1, room set up and food; and CAPT Jim Garrett handles our monthly RMN newsletter and our website. What this means is that more have got to step forward and help keep the Rocky Mountain Navy going, if enough of us think it is worth keeping it going. And they should be thanked as it sure helps. All of this means that we need to have a good turnout for the September 9th Backyard Get Together. We seem to keep getting more Navy folk to join our group. But it also means a number of you have not yet paid your dues for 2018. As you know, the dues are very modest. That permits us to pay for our website, the great spread for our food and drink at last year’s get together, help to our Recruiters from time to time. limited support to the United Veterans Committee of Colorado (of which we are a member), and other Navy related things.
