Dear Members:

Hello again!

On August 16, yours truly attended the CNY Inaugural Celebration in Syracuse highlighting the achievement of CNY’s first year in existence.  Quite impressive. I encourage all of you to continue to view the CNY web-site for news updates and interesting work sessions.

On  August 18, volunteers (see below) at Circles of Mercy organized a large amount of donated school school supplies for needy 9-12th graders in the city of Rensselaer. I want to thank those club members who donated so graciously.  Please contact me if you have school supplies you wish to donate.

Next up is the Summer Casual Event Calendar: Thursday August 21, 2025. Dean and Doris Calamaras will be hosting a Greek Night dinner at their house beginning at 5pm. Please contact Dean if you plan on attending. The event is a fund raiser for The Gift of Life. The cost is $30 per person and $40 for a family.

On Thursday August 21 a Backpack Project Meeting will be held at 9 am in the conference room of the East Greenbush School District.  

On Thursday, August 28, 2025 Carole Heaney will be hosting a Family and Friends Social at her house featuring games, music and desert beginning at 6:00pm. $25 suggested donation to support the East Greenbush Central School District Backpack. Program. Please Contact Carole to reserve your seat.
