They are easier to carry if you crush them. QUOTABLE QUOTES “As I hurtled through space, one thought kept crossing my mind – every part of this rocket was supplied by the lowest bidder.”…John Glenn “One of life’s greatest mysteries is how the boy who wasn’t good enough to marry your Daughter can be the Father of the smartest Grandchild in the world.”…Jewish Proverb FROM YOUR COMMANDER, STEVE SEIDEN Our membership has grown significantly over the past months thanks to the efforts of Les Sherman. Yes, and we are now younger than last year. Along those lines we are anticipating more people available for the next Poppy Drive. Mort Freidlander has stepped up to the plate and will be our next Poppy Chairman. Thanks, Mort. He will be working closely with Toby and Herb Spiegel whom will be stepping down after the Veterans Days drive. Thanks to them for an outstanding job over the past two years. Don Davidson has said that Fresh & Easy will be having a Labor Day Barbecue on Sunday, August 31st and Monday, September 1st. He will need volunteers to help him. Please contact him directly at 702-862-0282. He is also working on expanding our presence at other Fresh & Easy locations for Veterans Days Poppy Drive as well as Sprouts. Veterans Days for Poppies (November 5th thru 11th, except for Saturday the 8th), and placing flags at Bunker Cemetery on Sunday November 9th. At last months General meeting we were asked to nominate two people from our Post to be considered for Life Membership at the National Jewish Museum. Each Post will also be doing the same and the final voting will be at the next Department meeting on September 8th. The two people that I have sent names in from Post 64 are Bea Siefman, our long time Adjutant, and Herb Spiegel, our Past Post Commander. The other two nominations were Helen Groner and yours truly and both graciously declined. Another recommendation by those that stayed after our General meeting, when I discuss in detail what is happening with the Kline Fund, was to give and overview including a brief history for the new members of our Post during the regular meeting. This will be done at our August meeting. I will also continue to have my Kline Fund meeting after the General meeting for those that want more details and updates. For those of you that are not familiar with the Kline Fund visit our website at: www.klinehomelessveteransfund.org Our Post has been chosen to coordinate the next VA Stand-Down which will be Wednesday, October 1st. Isaac Cohen will be handling this event and will need volunteers to help package non-perishable food in plastic bags for this event. He will make an announcement and go over the details at our next meeting on the 24th. Post 64 will be honored at the following Temples for Veterans Day. Our Post will be sponsoring the Oneg at both Temples. They are on November 7th at Bet Emet in Sun City Summerlin and on December 5th at Temple Sinai at 9001 Hillpointe Drive. Keep in mind a few key dates, they are as follows: October 26th our annual Barbecue and our Chanukah Party on December 21st. See the flyer in this edition to make reservations for the Barbecue. Please review Nachum Golodner's note regarding JWV membership for the year 2015 which started on July 1, 2014, reproduced in this edition of the Newsletter. If you have or will be sending your dues directly to JWV National, please advise Nachum so we can keep accurate records on current Members and Patrons. All spouses of a deceased partner that passed away in Fiscal Year 2014 (July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014) will receive a paid up membership (paid by Post 64) for 2015. Starting September 1, 2014 all non-paid-up Members or Patrons that participate in a General Meeting or Post Event will pay a surcharge of $5 for each Meeting or Event. People, it's important that we keep accurate records for that’s what National does and it effects our Voting Power at Department elections and other business matters. TO: ALL POST MEMBERS AND PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS, EXCLUDING PAID UP LIFE MEMBERS. SUBJECT: JWV DUES A couple of months ago the Post Commander announced in the Newsletter and at a Post meeting that all members who had not paid their FY 2013-14 dues could hold the funds for the FY 2014-15 year. The idea was to get everyone paid up at the same time instead of dribbling the funds throughout the year Our voting strength at National and at Department meetings is based upon our paid up membership. We would like to make the very best showing as early in the year as possible. The expense is the same whether you pay it now or later, so please provide your check in July even if you have not received your bill from National. Please make your check out to JWV (Jewish War Veterans) but deliver the check to the Post. The Post will keep records on who has paid and will forward the checks as a group to National for posting. You can bring your check to the July Post meeting, July 27, 2014, at the Suncoast Hotel/Casino. You can also mail your check to Post 64 in care of Nachum Golodner at 9813 Ranch Hand Ave., Las Vegas NV 89117. The annual dues are $45.00 for Veterans and for Patrons. $3.00 is rebated to the Department of Nevada and $7.00 is rebated to the Post. If there is a chance you will forget or lose the address, feel free to send your check today. Thank you for your cooperation.
