President’s Message – February 2017
January 20th, 2017, will certainly be remembered as a watershed day in American history. We inaugurated as President of the United States a most unlikely candidate. All week the forecasts had called for a one hundred percent chance of rain, yet barely a sprinkle fell on Inauguration Day. Millions squeezed onto the Capital grounds or in the mall to take part in the pomp and circumstance of the peaceful transition of power for which America is known. The bands played...
President’s Message – January 2017
Happy New Year one and all……2016 was a year of triumph and sadness, like so many years before her. 2017 lays ahead of us full of promise, but will surely bring us moments of despair – it’s just the nature of the beast.

Last night proved that America wants what the...
President’s Message – November 2016
We are less than a week away from correcting the course that America has found herself on the last 8 years. I am hoping, praying and working towards getting Donald J Trump elected as President of the United States of America. I know that you are, too.
