CIMENT HILL

As you know, there is a new generation of "combat veterans" out there and somehow their voices must be heard. I can't remember if I did but I thought that I'd extend an invitation to you and the American "Vets" to an "OPEN HOUSE" scheduled for the 22 Jul 09. With all your connections, I'm sure that you can find a way to get the information to the "Boyz" in Madawaska. Like the old fellows preceeding us, we have to assemble as this is the only way that we can make a difference. We can't sit back and let what happened to the "Vietnam Vets" happen to the "Boyz" serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. They deserve to be acknowledged and recognized. If the Madawaska "Boyz" are up to a "ride" and capable of organizing a "motorcycle" escort, this would be a really nice touch. Let's see if this possibility exists. Anyway, please gather and join us for this event.

On the agenda:

1600 hrs: Arrival of Canadian Veterans by motorcycle.

1700 hrs: Meet and Great/Gathering at "CIMENT HILL"

1800 hrs: Supper (cost $10.00 per person)

Menu: CHILLI CON CARNI and SALADS

1900 hrs: Evening celebrations complete with music and "Bomb fire"

Beer to be made available on site at additional costs.

All revenues are to be used for the upkeep and further expansion of "CIMENT HILL".

Hope to see you there,
