In regards to HOF By-Laws what is the average yearly expense since it began?

Knowing this should help in making a good decision.
Reply Good question.

Our main expenses are for flowers, cards, postage, and flags. Bob could and will give us the exact amount spent on those for each year but I am reluctant to bother him right now with everything else he is dealing with. I can get pretty close though since I have paid for the flowers a few times myself with Bob's blessings.

I would say that our average costs for the last 4 years would be very close to $3200 a year. We paid a little more in year one than Y2, 3 and 4. This past year we spent roughly $3000 but some of the flowers were not quite up to 589th standards, so we might bump the $3200 cost again next year.

I hope this gives everyone a better understanding of the program budget.

I spoke to Caroline Mayes a bit ago and she informed me that John has lung cancer and will be having an operation soon to remove a portion of his lung.

Please keep John and Caroline in your thoughts and prayers.

I have just received word from John Beblo's wife that John passed away Friday, July 13th after a short battle with lung cancer. John was assigned to C Co.

Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.

Glad to hear that the board is trying to find a new location for the next reunion. I ask one thing, please try to fond a motel/hotel that is PET FRIENDLY. Some of us likes to bring our pets with us. Also try to find one with Frgies in the rooms.Thank You.

The purpose of researching other Reunion options is to give our Membership information so they can be properly informed and offer input at our Business meetings. While I believe the decision of where we assemble should ultimately fall on the Board, the Board uses input from ALL members in making that final call.

The Officers of the Board have organized every Battalion Reunion since the Association's inception in 2009 and unless we have someone else that wants to take responsibility for it, the Board will.
