In past years HVE members have collected nonperishable items to help those in need during the holiday season. This year we are pushing both our members and guests to step up and really make a difference by donating nonperishable items every time they visit the Aerie. Members were given a punch card at the membership meeting on November 2nd. The punch card is designed remind members to bring items to the Aerie every time they visit and it offers them the opportunity earn a free meal after they receive 10 punches. Punch cards were also passed out and Monday and Saturday bingos in order to get guests of the Aerie involved in the food drive and hopefully increase the amount of donations so that more families can receive help that is desperately needed during the forthcoming holiday season. Aerie member Joanne Thompson was the first person to fill her punch card even before the month of November started, she received her punch card on Monday October 27th at Bingo and on Saturday October 30th she walked into Bingo and asked for some help unloading a large bag from her car that she could not carry herself. The bag was full of non-perishables for the food drive and was a great kick-off for the food drive. So remember if you are coming to the Aerie please bring non-perishable food items to donate, or if you are unable to bring them please email secretary@foe3732.com and arrangements can be made for someone to come by and pick up the donation. Also we are accepting cash donations to help needed families during the Holiday season, so if are interested in donating please contact an Aerie Officer and they will be glad to accept your donation and give you a receipt if you need one. HVE Gets Rid Of President And Crowns A King With the Aerie all decorated for the Halloween season with pumpkins and hay bales, the annual Halloween party was ready to begin and it was a night filled with fun and fear. Aerie President Jeremy Schroeder put on his best white pantsuit full of sequins and showed up as the King of Rock and Roll. Overall about 40 members and guests enjoyed the party which was full of good Halloween treats and bad Halloween tricks (the karaoke). Thanks everyone for helping and we hope everyone had a great evening.

It was most obvious during the installation of 2010-11 Grand Presidents Phil Tice of West Virginia and Mary Myers of Michigan on the final night of the convention, and the reason for it was the compelling indomitability of Grand Worthy President Phil and the sparkling magnetism of Grand Madam President Mary. “The ‘Energy Bus’ made it to Louisville,” said Phil, who entered the ballroom to a standing ovation and the strains of John Denver’s “Thank God, I’m a Country Boy!” “It’s time to get on the ‘Can-Do Bus’ and continue our journey!” “LaBamba” was the entrance song of Mary Myers, Eagledom’s first Latino Grand Madam President. “Nothing can take away the pride I feel,” she said. “We are Brothers and Sisters and together we stand united. We will leave a legacy that will shine for a lifetime!” It’s a fact. Yes, some of the debates during convention sessions were contentious, but in the end it was the attitude and determination of our new international Presidents that stamped the 112th Grand Aerie and 59th Grand Auxiliary… For the complete story see www.FOE.com or your Eagle Magazine.
