Letter from your Worthy President Steve Traini ~
Brothers and Sisters,
We had a good September. I would like to start
off by thanking everyone that worked so hard
to put on a great week
of fundraising for John
Nadeau’s family. What a great turnout at each
event and a great time was enjoyed by all!
Thank you everyone for this great event,
whether you helped out personally or simply
came and supported by participating. It is a true
testament to who we are as an Aerie and how
much we can accomplish when we work together!
We now have a full slate of officers with the
addition of Cheri Daily and Tony Salas as trustees! Working with Sally Sparhawk, John
Moyle and Ruth Eisler, we now have a strong
group of trustees and we can expect great
things from this team!
With Football season upon us, we already have
some folks stepping up and providing football
food on Sunday’s! Be sure to come down and
enjoy the games or pitch in and help! These
events are about more than football; we are
raising money for our various charities and
enjoying fellowship with our Eagle Brother and
Sisters at the same time! GO BRONCOS!
I wish everyone well and look forward to a
great fall and don’t forget that we have the annual Kids For Christmas event coming up.
Cheri Daily will be looking for your help in
putting on this wonderful event!
One last note, I continue to call out to everyone
to please come out and help with Bingo! I cannot stress enough how very important Bingo is
to our Aerie! We have a small core team that
work bingo but they NEED HELP! They volunteer their time every week! We are simply
requesting folks to step up one day a month!
Please consider doing this and helping relieve
those that give so much! As I asked when I
first took office, if EVERY member (Aerie
and Auxiliary) would volunteer one day a
month (that is over 500 folks), we would be
able to accomplish some outstanding things!

Hello Sisters and Brothers,
I am so proud and happy that we are stepping up to cook meals. People
helping People are what we are all about.
Let’s stop the bad chatter behind each others’ back. It is very uncalled for.
We all have good and bad in us so please just remember that.
We all have had good meals, entertainment and Bingo this month of September.
It was so nice to hear someone won the bingo pot who can really use it, and
it supports the club.
Give a bit pat on the back for the bartenders. They work hard and put up with a lot.
Glad to see our popcorn popper is back to normal. So please be gentle with it and take care of it.
It makes great popcorn.
Glad to see our Aerie President Steve Traini up and around from his heart procedure - he is such a
good asset to our club.
And by the way, a big thank you to Nancy Traini and Evelyn Fenley for getting out the bulletin.
And to Stella Nash, Sue Nash, Brenda Long, Nancy Webb, Kathy Warmuth and myself for all the
work on Friday meals, and the music by Linda Young on the 5th - Everyone was shaking a leg. Well
done!
The kids Halloween party will be coming up—we need goodies. We always need bulletin folders
so please come in and fold, laugh and tell stories.
Have a great month of October,

Sally Sparhawk
Sally is one of our fabulous Trustees! When need dictated - Sally stepped up!
EVERY morning, 7 days a week, Sally popped into the Aerie to ensure everything was accomplished for that day. She supervised the bar, purchased everything for Aerie meals, picked up the Federal order and cooked Steak Nite.
Sally has given 110% from day one!
Thanks, Sally, for being a such a GREAT Eagle!!!

YOU are
somebody’s
reason to
Smile.
We would like to thank all of our members and guest who supported our meals and functions from September 6th – 12th for
John Nadeau. It was a great team effort by many volunteers.
Since John Amis changed his meal from the Kids for Christmas Charity to help John Nadeau, Paul Suksi stepped up and
matched what John’s record-breaking meal did for Kids for
Christmas. He felt we shouldn’t miss a chance to help the children even though we were helping one of our own. Thanks
Paul! And on behalf of Art, Dick, The Eagles Riders, and John, Anthony, and Noah Amis,
Starting October 1st, all Aerie members will have a
chance to win your membership dues for a year.
For only .50 cents you purchase a chance on the
raffle board. Once the board is sold out a number
will be drawn and that person’s dues will be paid

credit card for up to $100 OR
