Message from Donna Merlino, FMCA North East Area Secretary

Hello Everyone:
I am hoping by now you have received and read my first email.  As I mentioned in that email you will be receiving quite a few notices/emails from us regarding Northeast Area happenings.
We have 2 Vice President positions open on your NEA Executive Board.  Bud McCormick and Tom Rec will not be running for a 2nd term as they are moving in a different life direction.  They will be missed but we wish them well in their future direction.  Both Bud and Tom will continue in their positions until our business meeting to be held at the 2015 NEA Rally in July.  The new VPs will begin their duties at the conclusion of the NEA Rally.
We are asking you to please forward this information to your membership in a timely manner.  We would appreciate any one interested in running for one of these vacant positions to get in touch with me by email/phone or contact a member of the nominating committee (listed below).
Fred Linberk - Bussin Buddies - fjl57@sbcglobal.net
Sandie ZernBussin Buddie - sandiez16@gmail.com
Harley Soulia - Green Mountain Chapter - hsoulia@aol.com
There is no experience required for holding a position on the board, just enthusiasm and a willingness to have fun.  So please consider this opportunity to support your Northeast Area. 
Thank you,

Donna Merlino, NEA Secretary
o/b/o The NEA Executive Board

North East Area President's Message

The 2016 North East Area Rally (NEAR) will not be held in Syracuse




Hi,
 
I should have mentioned this is the CAPTAINS list informational letter. Please share with other Chapters and your members.
 
The Convention will NOT be held in Syracuse NY. They are having a major renovation.
 
Next Tuesday at 2:00pm I meet with Jerry Yeatts, Chris Lust and Jim Rosenberg from national at the BIG E  (Great States Exposition Center) in Springfield Mass. for a site inspection & meeting.
 
Wednesday its off to Fryeburg ME for a 2:00pm site inspection & meeting there.
 
 
As soon as I hear anything and a decision is finalized I will make sure the Northeast gets notified via our website, blog and also have our secretary do an email blast hoping all our chapter emails are current and up to date.
 
I apologize for this second emailing,
 
Respectfully yours,
 
Tom Ziobrowski
NEA FMCA PRESIDENT
