Wulihan Chapter Corner

 

Brothers:

Well, we finally got the newsletter off the ground, after a year of planning on, “How do we do it?” Joanne Foley came to our rescue and showed both of us and the boys how to use the program, and she now is our “technical advisor”. Thanks to Joanne and her vast knowledge in computerized publishing, we will be able to add as many pages to our newsletter as needed.

Our newsletter will be issued twice a year. The next mailing will be after the June 9th BBQ.

If anyone has any ideas on what that they would like to see in the newsletter, such as an “Historical Corner” or “Ceremonial Team Update”, or perhaps even an “O A Crossword Puzzle”, please send them in “Word Document Format” to 9334him@optonline.net or Agnesed@mscdirect.com

If anyone is interested in joining the Editorial Staff, please see one of us at the OA Meetings or contact us at Agnesed@mscdirect.com

Download the newsletter HERE.

Yours in Service,

Dominick Agnese & Albert Trotter
Senior Editorial Supervisory Staff

Hi, I am Chris Butt the chapter chief of Amangi Wulit, and this is the first of hopefully many OA Newsletters. Everyone should be active in one way or another in the OA. Join one of our many committees, Ceremonial Elections, Brotherhood and Retention, (you “gotta” be brotherhood for this one), and the Ordeal committee. Ceremonial needs more people to help. Come down to the OA meeting they are allot of fun. For example, in March we are having a pinewood derby—only 1 car per troop. So come down to the meetings! Not only because they are fun, but also so you have a say in what types of awesome stuff we do!

Welcome to the first issue of our Chapter newsletter, I hope all Brothers will get the word out about this to those who have been too busy to attend our monthly meetings or service projects. These past two Sundays have been a busy one for our Chapter Ceremonial Team. They have done cheerful service by providing Bridging Ceremonies and Four Winds Ceremonies to Cub Scouts at their Blue and Gold dinners. I hope it gives the team as much a sense of fulfillment as it does to me. To see these young Scouts eyes, when the Big Guys show up to honor them is beyond description. Please think about joining the Chapter team we need your help. Our February meeting, once again, saw The Veterans of Scouting soundly defeat the Scouts in OA Jeopardy. The score was too embarrassing to repeat here. The OA Pinewood Derby cars
were distributed to the Troops in attendance. Next month will be our races, good luck to all. Troop elections are almost completed thanks to the efforts of Russ, Al, Jerry, Irene and all the Scouts who participated. If you check Massapequanews. com some time later this week, our Chapter Chief will be in there. He brought the items donated by the Chapter to be distributed to the Troops overseas. This newsletter is being sent to those Brothers whose email address's we have. There are many Brothers we don't have, they never gave them; they don't come to meetings; they have changed them. I ask all Brothers to keep up with the Brothers in your Troop. Remind them of meetings and activities. See if they
have paid their dues. Support you Chapter and Lodge. You and they were elected to the Order for a reason. Live up to that reason and the obligation you and they took. Don't forget your food donations for the Church pantry at our March 3rd. meeting. Till then...

Your's in our motto,

“Live up to that reason and the obligation you and they took.”
