President’s Message

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

I can’t believe it but the end of the year is near. Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner, and we will soon be gathering around the table, breaking bread and sharing in some holiday cheer with one another and our families!

Thanks to everyone that participated in the Turkey Party in October. A special shout out goes to our planning team: Mark Kadlecik, Rich Maloney, Joe Mihalko, Tom Kelly, Pat Walsh, Bill Burke, John Walker and especially to Paddy Fitzgerald who secured numerous gift cards for us to raffle off during the event. I’d also like to thank our many volunteers from all divisions during that helped during the party including Craig Wagaman, Bruce King, Bob Bryant, Marie Davenport, Barb Walling, Matt & Mary Gilroy, Maggie Haines, Ken Sullivan, Kevin Byrnes, Maureen Kadlecik, Francine Connerton, Carol Thayne, Sabian Honnick and anyone else I may have forgotten who helped make this night a resounding success! 

Please join us for the annual Halloween party on October 30th at the hall and please support our Juniors on election day for their annual spaghetti dinner, this is always delicious. Also, if you can please join us to walk in the Veterans Day Parade in Binghamton on November 11th. Line up is at 12:30pm at the American Legion on Main St. Please wear your sash if you have one!

Lastly, we are having our Annual All Divisions Christmas Party on Saturday December 5th. Sign-ups will be available at the hall for this event. Please join us again this year for some delicious food, companionship and of course to sing some carols with us led by our very own AOH Christmas Choir. We hope to see you there! 

Our next Men’s Meeting will be Tuesday November 10th at 7PM. 

In our motto, 

Ian Haines, AOH President
