Text Box: As I indicated at the reunion, a financial statement for the Association would be available in the first newsletter following the reunion.  This statement reflects income and expenses of the Association for 2003 and through September, 2004.  Please note that the Statement does not reflect the printing and mailing of this newsletter.  
 
We thank everyone that contributes to the Association, whether it be dues, donations, purchase of ship store items, or website support.  Only by your generosity, is it possible to keep the Association alive.  Please remember that John Worman and David Vydra volunteer all of their time, as well as officers.  No one receives  monetary reward for their time, only a very special thank you for keeping this Association alive.
