Salutation Brothers

Thank you officers and members for

chairing our Husker tailgate parties and everyone who brings food for sharing. Our numbers of members keep increasing and everyone is having a great time. It’s great seeing our members having fun. We have a book for events located at the entrance of our dining room for those that would like to volunteer. As always, we are in need of volunteers. Thank you to all who help make our events happen.

Way to go HUSKERS ON WINNING your first game of the season! Our Aerie is a busy place, events happening the whole month long, always something to do. Pool, shuffleboard, cribbage, cards, etc.

Thanksgiving is coming fast. Our Auxiliary Ladies will be preparing and serving Thanksgiving Dinner on Sunday November 18th from 4 till 6pm. Meal served with all the trimmings. Donations are welcomed for turkeys, desserts, and anything else you care to donate. Volunteers are needed to help support this event. Cost of the meal will be $9.00.

Donations are needed to replace our air conditioner compressor which will cost around 1,800.00. Send donations to Worthy Secretary Cary Weider. Donations are greatly appreciated.

Brothers or Sisters, if you have talented skills in carpentry, dry walling, electrical, plumbing, carpet laying, painting etc., we need your volunteering skills. As a non-profit, we have limited funds.

For those that missed the Charter Member Appreciation Day, we had a great time and good stories on how our Aerie/Auxiliary was started. If interested go to Nebraska FOE website under Bellevue 3912 History. Very eye opening and interesting. Hope you will see the article in the Bellevue Leader.

It's very important for members to attend Aerie meetings (Usually the 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month) (see calendar for changes this month) to help with on-going decisions we are making for our future as an Aerie. Let’s all get at least one new member this year.

Aerie /Auxiliary enrollment fees are waved for November and December. (See Membership News below). Reminder: Veterans, Police Firefghters, and other first responders receive their first year membership free. Ask about the FO.E. Memorial Fund, what it can do for your family.

Tim Phelan organized a fundraiser for John and Donna Rush in order to help them with costs related to John’s accident--this was a huge success. Thank you to everyone who made it happen. This event was not sponsored by our Aerie, but friends and family of John and Donna Rush. Congrats to all. Brothers please support our Aerie as much as you can, and in what capacity you can.

In closing, remember our motto.

IF I CAN NOT SPEAK WELL OF AN EAGLE, I WILL NOT SPEAK ILL OF HIM.

See you around the Eagles. Fraternally, David Hodges

Dear Sisters-

NOVEMBER FOOD DRIVE

FOR BELLEVUE FOOD

PANTRY

Can you, no, will you help provide food for the needy? The Auxiliary is asking members to share their good will with the many people in the Bellevue and surrounding community who need a helping hand, especially food on the table for their families. Our drive will begin Nov 1st and last the entire month.

I visited the Pantry recently and was amazed at the shelves and shelves of various foods, with many shelves completely bare. For instance, lots of peanut butter but no jelly. Drop off items at the Aerie all month.

Check out the items on our flyers and BE AS GENEROUS AS YOU CAN! For info, call Jo, 291-2558.

SERIOUSLY ,HOW DOES THE AERIE DO IT?

HOW CAN ONE CLUB PREPARE SO MANY MEALS, HAVE SO MANY ACTIVITIES & FUN, AND STILL GIVE SO MUCH TO OUR CHARITIES?! ONLY ONE WAY –

VOLUNTEERS WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU VOLUNTEERED YOUR TIME? EVEN ONE EVENT MEANS SO MUCH. PLEASE INQUIRE. SEE ENCLOSED EVENTS.

Thanks to the contributions of Charlene and Bill Lueth, we will be decorating the club on November 24th at 9 amThere will be a cookies provided and a hot chocolate bar. We are asking for help as this is a lot of work. So please be generous with your time and come join in the fun and get in the holiday spirit.

Thank You, Sue Winter, Manager

MEMBERSHIP NEWS Aerie/Auxiliary Enrollment Fees waived – November & December

Now is the time to sign up a new member, or someone who let their membership lapse! During the months of November and December, the Aerie & Auxiliary are waiving enrollment fees. The new or re-enrolled applicant only needs to pay the membership dues to May 2019, or May 2020. Cost to join during November:

Aerie - $18.00 to May 2019, $54.00 to May 2020
