The New York Leadership:
Captains and Coordinators.
“We don’t care what you ride or if you a ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a hawk or a dove. It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or what your income is. The only prerequisite is Respect.” (from PGR Mission Statement)
Greetings.
For those of you who don't know, I have been appointed to State Captain as of Nov. 1st. I was appointed RC and then Asst. State Captain in ‘06 by JohnnyB and am committed to ensuring the PGR in NY remains strong, continues to grow and continues to serve those who deserve it, our KIA's and their families,our active duty and our Veterans.
Here are a few goals we are working towards.
1. Increase membership through information booths, brochures and establishing contacts at American Legions , VFW's etc. throughout each region.
2. Setup contacts at each VA medical facility to get our HOTH program active in
responding to serious needs that arise.
3. Hold fundraisers like poker runs and raffles to fund our HOTH activities and pay
for banners etc.
These are just a few of the things your leadership is working on and we need your help to succeed. Please let us know if you can help in any of these areas even if you are as busy as the rest of us [Smile] , those we serve are counting on us.
Thank you,
Dave Kern
