December 2017 End of Year President’s Message

Jim Carter

As we begin a new year, I hope all of you had a joyous Christmas season with family and friends. Whatever your faith, it gave us all time to pause and remember how blessed we are to live in a free country.

A great gift I received was Bill O’Reilly’s book, Killing England: The Brutal Struggle for American Independence. A must read. History as it was, not some convoluted rewrite by a leftist elite trying to change History to fit his own political ideology. History is what it was not something that changes on the whims of a political movement.

Many have paid the ultimate price to keep us free. It is our job to do our part in sustaining this Republic for those who follow.

Our program line up for 2018 will be jam packed with outstanding presenters covering a wide variety of topics. You don’t want to miss a single meeting. Some of our future speakers are already posted. Check future programs.

Also it’s an election year. We will be electing a Governor, Senator( time to get rid of Bill Nelson) and send Congressman Rooney back to Congress. State house seats are up as well as local officials. Keeping Florida red is a big challenge.

Please renew your membership and play a big effort in keeping America Strong! Remember your dues fund our Scholarship program. Our investment in our youth will help them carry the torch for freedom. See you at our January meeting.
