Auxiliary President’s Message
Sisters,
Well we are off again—the start of a new Eagle year!
On June 3rd we have the outdoor-based Food-N-Fun! It’s a
fundraiser for the Aerie Home. We hope you will come down and join
us. June 8-10 is the Nebraska State Convention in Norfolk. June
18th is the Father’s Day Breakfast. We also have all our other
meals throughout the month.
I would like to remind all of you to please sign in when you
come into the Aerie Home. From the back door, this is the log to
the right of the Quarter Daily Book—- NOT the Quarter Dai-ly Book.
At the front door, this is the first book on your right. It is VERY
important that we as members remember to sign in. Also, if you
bring in a guest, remember to sign them in as well.
We can always use your help, your ideas, and your company.
Fraternally,
Barb Romero
Madam President
Aerie President’s Message Brothers,
A new year is upon us! I look forward to this upcoming year and
serving as the Aerie president. As it is a new year, I encourage
all brothers to attend the Aerie Meetings. This is your chance to
have your voice heard. The meetings take place on the 2nd and 4th
Thursday of every month, unless otherwise notified. These are
listed on calendars that are posted in the club and in the
newsletter calendar.
A saying I am always told is: “If you want to complain about
what's happening, bring a solution. Together we will work for the
better.” The same saying applies here. It's our club. We can make
it more prosperous. It will take teamwork and hard-working
volunteers. The more you put into our home, the more you will get
out of being a Eagle. If you want to get involved, talk with your
officers! Communication is key. With that being stated, I am
excited to see what changes this year will bring. Good luck to all
of the seated officers, I have no doubt we will continue the
positive changes that have been taking place.
Let the ride begin!
Your Worthy President,
Zachary Nisley
Nana’s Corner
Welcome to Nana’s Corner. Each month you will find a little
sass, a little knowledge and hopefully a little bit of fun as well.
Summertime Refreshment – Strawberry Lem-onade
Ingredients 4 cups fresh lemon juice
3 cups sugar 1 bag frozen strawberries
Squeeze the lemons and pour the juice into a pitch-er. Mix
together the sugar with 3 cups water and stir to dissolve to make
syrup. Add the syrup to the lemon juice and top it up with 8 cups
water. Taste to make sure it’s sweet enough for you, add the
straw-berries. Mix the lemonade together and let chill in the
fridge. For the adults, add 1 1/2 ounces vodka to each glass (You
can substitute raspberries for strawberries but remember they are
tart and you June need to increase the sugar.) Fill mason jars with
ice cubes and top them off with the lemonade

Editorial Comment
Congratulations to the new officers of Aerie and Auxiliary 3912.
May your 2017-2018 year be a successful and productive year.
The success of our Aerie home is attributed to the dedication
and hard work of MANY of our members, volunteers and officers,
alike. We have many volunteers, who, without them, the success of
our visions cannot be achieved. At the same time, it is the same
off icers and volunteers, week after week, month after month, who
are always there to pitch in. These same individuals all strive to
prepare and provide appealing meals for ALL to enjoy (members and
non-members alike). They are also the same group of individuals who
are tirelessly there to support open door functions to recruit new
members, work to promote Open Air Festivals and Pub Crawls, holiday
dinners, and mainte-nance on all of our aging facilities. The
endless dedication of the few have made it possible for the many to
enjoy.
During the past year, negative comments such as the following
have been expressed:
“Why should I renew my membership when we have so many open door
functions?” “Why don’t we have more menu varieties for dinners
instead of the same old menu?” “Why did we stop the Saturday
lunches?”
The answers to these questions as well as others alike – can
simply be answered by You – our Members. While the officers and
volun-teers can strive to make a difference, it takes ALL of our
membership to make 3912 a success. We have sent out surveys to our
members asking for assistance to update and maintain the Aerie
home. We have asked for input on menu items for breakfast and
dinner functions. Responses have been minimal—at best.
Many times – those who come into our Aerie home are not members.
Without those who come to support during an “Open” function, our
goal might not have been achieved the past couple of years. As a
result of these “Open” functions, we continually gain new members
as well as the ability to keep the lights on. New members have
joined who never realized that we even existed in our building!
The point here is simple: As stated before, without the support
of our ENTIRE membership, we will not succeed. We NEED every
mem-ber’s support – in whatever capacity you are able – in order to
succeed. As a 35-year member, volunteer, and officer – I look to
our mem-bership for your support. Without our members support, we
may as well just close the doors. These are my feelings – as the
Editor of the 3912 newsletter, and may / may not reflect the same
sentiment of other officers. I invite your comments – come down to
the Aerie home and let’s discuss it. The solution to the continued
success of 3912 is up to you – our membership.
