Monsieurs,
I hope all had a good winter and a Happy and Blessed Easter. Now it is time
to come out of hibernation and get back to work for the 40&8 and our Nurses.
Please make contact with Voiture Locales in your Grande and inform them that
it is time to complete and submit their Nurses Training reports for
2009-2010 to you, myself and to Gary Galinat- National Directeur Nurses
Training, 1903 E Sully,Pierre, SD 57501 or
glgcpa@aol.com. The
forms are available on the website at http//fortyandeight.org/communque.htm.
The following awards will be given out at Promenarde Nationale in September
at Springfield, IL, based on the information reported to us.
VOITURE 510-ANDERSON, IN AWARD- to the Voiture Locale for excellence of
programs in Nurses Training.
J.EARL SIMPSON AWARD-CHEF DE CHEMIN DE FER-1955- to the Grande Voiture in
whose jurisdiction the greatest progress is made in Nurses Training Programs
(if you did not submit a report last year you will not get the award this
year!).
MICHEAL R VERVILLE-CHEF DE CHEMIN DE FER-1996- to the Grande Voiture with
the highest per capita contribution to Nurses Training Programs.
I have to have my recommendations to Gary by July 29th so I need the reports
by July 25th.
Please send Nurses Training reports to Gary and Myself not to
Nationale, at that time they do not have time or money to forward the
reports to us. Thank You.
The forms can be pulled up online, completed and e-mailed to me at
rgw40and8@yahoo.com
and to Gary at
glgcpa@aol.com. This
will make it a lot easier for them, you and us.
Nurses Training Pins!!
Just a reminder that payment is due for 2010 pins. The 2011 pins are
available, but they will not be sent out by Gary until he has received full
payment for your 2010 pins. Gary still has 1300- 2010 pins, if anyone can
get rid of more. We need the money.
Please send me the correct contact information the Grande Nurses Training
Directeur for your Grande. So we can get a good start for 2011. E-mails and
phone numbers if possible.
Attached is a copy of the- PREMIER NURSE OF THE YEAR AWARD GRANDE VOITURE DU
ILLINOIS QUALIFICATIONS
I would like to see all Grandes have a Nurse of the Year and a Nationale
Nurse of the Year. The Nurses Training Program has been around the 40&8 a
lot longer that Law Officer of the Year, Hero of the Year or City of the
Year, ect. These are all good programs, but I think that our Nurses need to
be better recognized that they are! How about some input from out there?
We all plan to do our best for the 40&8, but sometimes we tend to get a
little lax and drop or fumble the ball. THANKS TO THE ONES WHO DIDN'T DROP
IT OR WHO GAINED A DRIBBLE IN THE MIDDLE. To the ones that just sat on the
bench or went to the shower, it is time to give a little relief. I am
talking to myself to. It has been a bad winter for me and I have drop the
ball more than once.We APPRECIATE what you do and have done for the 40&8,
but there is always more to do.
LET'S GIT ER DONE
With just a little effort we can all be a Hero.
Stand up for God and Country.
God bless one and all
