- Brothers are reminded that the 2011 Department Encampment will be held at the Great Lakes Christian College in the City of Lansing, Michigan on May 21, 2011. Please set the time aside on your calendar and plan to attend if you are able. Come join your brothers in helping chart the course you would like the Department to take for the coming year.
- Any brother interested in holding a Department elective office should submit his letter of interest, credentials, and any letters of endorsement, to the Department Nominating Committee no later than May 1, 2011. The chair of the Committee is brother Rick Danes. Please direct the information to brother Danes who will then share it with the committee. Brother Danes may be reached through email at REDanes@aol.com, or may be sent to him via regular mail at 2612 Burns Street, Dearborn, Michigan 48124.
- On behalf of myself, and the other individuals who acted as installing officers from the Department, I wish to thank all those brothers from the various camps who displayed such hospitality and friendliness to us as we visited your camps doing officer installations. Your kindness, which you displayed in a dozen different ways, was very much appreciated.
- Any brother willing to serve in an appointed Departmental position next year is urged to contact me. The Department depends of the willing hands of it’s membership to carry on the work we do, but if we don’t know of your interest, it gets pretty hard to use the talents you would bring to bear on Departmental tasks. My e-mail address is P31713@aol.com.
In Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty,
