Hello Riders and fellow Eagles,
spring is here so it’s time
to pull out the leather
and fire up the
bikes. I will be
having a meeting of all the Iowa
Eagle Riders Groups
on April 4th at 1:00 p.m. at the
Grinnell Eagles and we will discuss issues and events. All Eagle
Riders are invited to attend. We
have some Riders at the Council
Bluffs Eagles #104 that is in the
process of starting up an Eagle
Riders Group. They will be having a meeting on April 19th at
1:00 p.m. at the Council Bluffs
Eagles Club. Other upcoming
events are April 4th Sheldon Blue
Finger Poker Run. Des Moines
This is the next to the last letter
that I will be writing to you. I will
probably get a little sentimental
reflecting on this past year. There
are so many to thank, I will just
say a huge THANK YOU to my
sisters and brothers.
The “Heart Connection” charity events are doing great. It is so
heart warming to hear the different families tell of their experiences with the Heart Connection.
The special guest of honor in Burlington was
Mark Slocum, the director of
the Heart Connection. He was
impressed at the way the Eagles
make money and have fun doing
it.
Upon receiving the membership report from the Grand Aerie,
I saw that Iowa is rated # 9 in the
nation!!
That is good!!! But, out of 38
auxiliaries, 23 had a goose egg....
The Aerie membership is ahead
of the auxiliary, so, I guess John
will not be walking the plank of
the USS Eagledom.
I have just returned from Creston and Grinnell state charity
events. WOW! Two more wonderful nights for the state charity.
Everyone is
doing such a
great job for
‘da kids. My
thanks to everyone that
is involved to make these events
successful... A big thank you to
our auctioneer and clerk.
March 21st, I will be visiting Tama for their state charity
event. The 26th I will be with
Grand Madam President Pat, in
Fort Dodge and then driving her
to Des Moines for their state charity event and the beginning of the
Western Zone. April 2nd, I will
be visiting Osceola before traveling to St. Joe for MINK.
The election of officers will be
coming up shortly for the new fiscal year. May-be there is a member that would like to get involved
and take an office?
Until next time, God Bless
Admiral, Rochelle McKay,
SMP
P.S. I am asking the auxiliaries
to bring their flags to the state
convention in Burlington. They
will be placed behind the podium
prior to the joint opening.

There are many other up coming

We are now
into the last
few months
of the year
and
our
State Charity
nights
and membership have been great.
Since last month we have been to
Burlington, Ottumwa, Clinton,
Waterloo, Creston and Grinnell
along with a stop in Osceola and
making our District Meeting in
Manchester. Joyce and I would
like to thank all the aeries and
auxiliaries for the hospitality. The
children and staff at the Heart
Connection thank everyone who
has attended the State Charity
nights and for digging into your
pockets to purchase items at the
auctions and raffle tickets. We
will be putting smiles on many
faces. There are many children in
Iowa suffering from cancer and
these camps are so important for
them to be with each other and
share life experiences. For those
aeries not hosting State Charity
nights, we ask you to please have
some time of fund raiser in your
aerie home for the Heart Connection, any amount would be greatly
appreciated.
Membership has been doing
great and I along with the membership team thank you. Our
membership team will be passing
out awards at the zone conferences in Des Moines and Waterloo. I am hoping each and every
aerie has someone attending their
zone conference so they may find
out first hand what is happening in Iowa and
to bring these
membership
awards back
to their aerie
homes
to
present to
the brothers that have
earned them.
Along with this we are proud to
announce the new aerie in Marion will be instituted on Sunday
afternoon, April 26th following
the Eastern Zone Conference in
Waterloo. Please plan on attending and we will be getting more
information out later date.
In closing, remember it is time
to plan for this coming year, you
need to have your nomination of
officers for this coming year in
April along with your delegates
to the State Convention
in Burlington June
25-27. It is important
that every aerie is represented in Burlington,
it is your chance to
voice your opinions
and be part of the
greatest
Fraternal
Organization in the
world.

Happy Easter!
As we get ready to wrap up our membership
year, let’s not forget to get those final reports in
to me on time. Reports are due to me by the 6th
of each month, to receive full points for our grand
prize in June. I would love to get another month of
100% reporting!
Thank-you to all the Auxiliaries that have worked
so hard to keep their barracks clean
and tidy!
Let’s get out, and get those
delinquent members reinstated so they can be a
part of the future of our
organization.

Hey, Sailors
Don’t be a fool, get those re-enrollees back, We need them!!!
Yep, April Fool’s Day has arrived. And the foolish ones are the
ones who let their membership’s lapse. Let’s help them get back
on board , remind them of what we are and what we do. April 22,
“Earth Day”, is a beautiful time to clean-up our ship. And how about
a “May Day” basket filled with some candy, flowers and a membership application? Don’t forget Mother’s Day, another prefect time
for wonderful gift from the heart! Happy Mother’s Day to all you
Lovely Mothers. So... Don’t be foolish, ( Sailors) and bring our
ship up to our Admiral’s expectations!
Over and Out,

We Need To Get in Gear if We Want to Win Our Bets
Congratulations girls, with your
help Iowa still ranks in the top
15 states where we currently are
in 9th place. Year to date, we’re
ahead of our yearly quota by 46
but we’re behind Rochelle’s goal
by 59. We are ahead of the men in
state stats because they are in 11th
place – but that’s the only place
we’re ahead of them. Currently,
with the bet we have between the
Aerie and Auxiliary, they are 21
percent ahead of us. So, ladies,
if you want to beat the men, we
need to work just a little harder
to get ahead of them. We are still
ahead of Kansas and Nebraska
but trailing Missouri by quite a
bit.
In looking at the February report, a few more were added to
the ranks of those recognized for
signing five or more members
thus far. These ladies deserve a
special
“Atta Girl” for doing their part
for membership.
Those recognized are: Marilyn
Mintun, 16; Mary Ann Cutting,
16; Sandra Fox, 14; Darlene Langrehr, 14; Shirley Ready, 13; Barbara Lynch, 13; Marcy Knauss,
12; Lisa Miller, 11; Barbara Garson, 9; Jackie Heinle, 9; Donna
Verploegh, 9; Kathy Davis, 8;
Sharon Kleppe, 7; Patti Selk, 6;
Emily Mowen, 6; Brenda Henninger, 6; Jackie Rodriguez, 6;
Barbara Jensen, 6; Janice Heston, 5; Cheryl Neyens, 5; Pamela
Thompson, 5; Mary Herzog, 5;
Anne Link, 5; Stephanie Stremlow, 5; Carrie Davis, 5; Cynthia
McKee, 5; Velva Brereton, 5;
Marlene Bruch, 5; Joyce Claude,
5; and Kim Hill, 5.
With convention not far off, remember your membership posters
and that each auxiliary needs to
bring a centerpiece for the membership luncheon. Will have more
information on the membership
luncheon next time.

Hello to all our wonderful brothers and sisters,
Here it is the first of April already, time really flies when you are having fun. I’m sure
warmer weather is on the way but all our
brothers and sisters around the state have kept
our hearts warm all winter with their response
to the Presidents State Charity. We have received warm welcomes every where we have
been. And on top of that we believe we have
raised some good money towards our goal.
But that doesn’t mean we are ready to let up

yet. The more we hear from the cancer victims
who visit with us during our travels the more we
are motivated to raise funds for them. We still
have a lot of stops to make in April and May.
Check the schedule elsewhere in this award winning bulletin and come visit with us at one of
our stops and help us raise money for these very
deserving kids.
See you along the Eagle Trail
Love Ya’ All
Rochelle, John, Nellie and Joe.

Have you checked out FOE Iowa Web Site since June 1st
yet? There is a Web Page set-up for ALL 41 Iowa Aeries &
Auxiliaries! (3 have their own Webmasters), the new State
Webmaster, Bill Drury, is doing the rest. The Web Site is setup to be not only informative, but also entertaining!
Please check yours out & be sure it’s up-to date! (Officers,
Meetings, Location, etc.) You can find them all at:
http://www.foe.com/iowa/aeries.htm, if you’re having any
“SPECIAL” functions, events, etc. & would like them posted
on
the
“Up-Coming
Events”
Web
page:
http://www.foe.com/iowa/events/events.htm, please send
them to the State Webmaster at: bdrury@neb.rr.com, or just
“Click” on Webmaster’s Name on the Web Site. Also, if your
Aerie/Auxiliary has a Monthly Newsletter/Calendar & you
would like it also “Posted” on your Web Site, let me know.
Also let me know of any “Special” wallpaper, music, etc. you
would like on YOUR Web Site.
The best way to send the information is by the “File” you
create it in, (M/S Word, Access, Excel, etc.) or by a PDF File.
If you don’t have a PDF “Converter” Program, don’t worry, I
do & I can convert it into a “Printable” File to Post. It’s a
good way to let EVERYONE in Iowa & the whole Eagles
Congratulations

jurisdiction to let them
know what you are doing!
If you want it on the
“Iowa Events”, Web page,
it will be posted in the
order that it is “Received”!
It’s also a good way of preventing having more then
one Event on the same
date, to increase other
Aerie participation! (Yes, I
know, sometimes it can’t be
prevented).
The Web Site is set-up for best viewing, using 600X800
Resolution! Instruction on how to “change” your Resolution
is posted at the bottom of the Iowa Home Page.
Remember, it’s YOUR Web Site, and will only be as
“Informative” and as good as YOU want it to be!
If the Information is not sent to me, it won’t be on there!

District membership teams for 2009-10
Red Oak Eagles
Red Oak Eagles #2715 recently donated $1,200 to the Red
Oak Public Library to be earmarked for the elevator fund. The
Aerie and Auxiliary wants to do its part to help those who need
assistance getting to the other floors of the library. Aerie President John McDowall and Auxiliary President Dorothy Lasley
present the check to librarian Kathi Wagner.
As the membership team for
2009-10 is currently planning for
next year, I have been asked to
request that each district let me
know ASAP who will be on next
year’s district membership teams.
So as soon as each district has
chosen a membership, delinquency and re-enrollment chairman, I
will need their names and contact
information. Your help with this
will be appreciated and thanks in
advance.
