Posted: 10/08/2020 Name: Bob Williams Message: I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Vice-Chairman Chuck Windham and Al Parten for the planning and execution of the meal for the 3 October USMRA meet and eat. Thanks also go to Drew Herbert for his hospitality in letting the association use his place as an alternative meeting venue. I can't forget Gary Kansky and his role in making the weapons raffle a success. If Gary hasn't contacted you by now, you are not among the lucky winners. We'll do it again next year. We appreciate everyone who supported the weapons fund raiser. |

Posted: 10/01/2020 Name: Chuck Windham, Vice Chairman Message: 3 October is almost on upon us, that means the MEET-n-Eat meeting! All those who promised sides , please bring them. Al and I will do the rest. No meat is needed as the Association will provide the protein. Be sure to bring something to sit on, and a cooler with drinks. I will have water there. A short meeting by Chairman Williams, then chow down at 1700hrs. Come early and enjoy the fellowship. We will conduct the Raffle just prior to eating. Address: 265 Dogwood Lane, Dahlonega, Ga. 30533.

Posted: 09/13/2020 Name: Bob Williams Message: A week has passed since the completion of the first Veterans Unstoppable retreat in Georgia. The event was a huge success in terms of the administrative aspects, but, more importantly, a success for the participants. Each left the retreat with a solid plan for moving forward from the traumas of life and combat. I can’t disclose more than that. I want to extend a well-deserved thank you to Amanda and Sylvia, the owners of Maple Ridge Creek Resort near Blairsville, GA. They accommodated all of our needs for the week. The food, prepared by Amanda, was above and beyond all expectations. Thanks go out to the retreat facilitators. Mark Baylis, Glen Lippincott, and Jeremiah Johnson came down from Eastern Pennsylvania while Sharon Henderson drove over from Fayetteville, NC. I also need to thank the many donors that allowed the retreat to happen. Multiple businesses, groups, and individuals from the Union and Lumpkin County areas gave generously to the cause of veteran suicide prevention and awareness. It is our hope to conduct a second retreat in the spring. |
