We Need Your Help

We are trying to update our records.  Attempts to use the FMCA master list results in bounce backs.  There are a lot of important issues both on an Area and National front that Paul DuBois feels that members would like to know but are unable to contact them without an up to date e-mail addresses.   
Please send contact information and National Director information to Paul at:
diplomatman2002@yahoo.com
or snail mail at:
Paul DuBois
P.O. Box 137
Tribes Hill. NY, 12177


If you check the "Northeast Area Chapters" information link on the left side of our blog, you can see if we have the correct information about your chapter.
If we need to make corrections, please send them to our blog email:
fmca.nma@gmail.com
or

Update from Paul Dubois

The following is an excerpt from Paul DuBois from the September 23rd Executive Board meeting about other possible locations for the NEA Rally.


......we were looking to see if there were any feasable locations to hold a rally in NYS, and we were going to ask for a clause in the contract to skip a year at Essex. After checking several locations we were unable to find a location that would both meet our needs and be within our financial means.  We found that this was not possible in the several locations that we contacted so we are presently working to make some changes in the rally at Essex Junction. We need to make changes that will draw the younger crowd.
