NERPA505 Update

Greetings 505!  I hope everyone had a chance to visit the county fair!  The first few days were wet, but the last few were tolerable.

Lt. Orris reports that the wound on his leg is healing well and his doctor has encouraged him to swim at the YMCA several times a week to speed his recovery.  He hopes to find out on the 18th when his doctor will release him to return to work and firefighting.

Thanks to SSgt. Hyde, our local USAF recruiter, for visiting our meeting last week and presenting a couple of certificates of appreciation from the USAF Recruiting Service for our Color Guard.  I believe she plans to visit again to give a couple more certificates to Color Guard members who were not present last week.

(1) Tuesday night is emergency services night.  We're continuing to try to get as much signed off on GTM3 SQTRS as possible in view of another possible SAREX with the Clarion Squadron in September.  The uniform of the day is BDUs.
(2) Anyone who wishes to attend the upcoming Commanders Call on 29 Aug, please inform Capt Hagberg or me, especially if you need transportation.
(3) Its not too early to be planning ahead to attend the PA Wing Conference, Pittsburgh, on 16-18 Oct.  The PAWG Cadet Conference will be concurrent.  Everyone who can attend is strongly encouraged to do so.
(4) We hope to be able to get one fundraising event scheduled for the Friday before Labor Day.  Volunteers will be needed.  We will keep you informed on developments.

  Semper Vigilans!  

See you Tuesday!
