Many of you have not used the opportunity of sharing precious moments with other classmates. It's not too late to submit a sketch to be included in the Alumni Bio Section (click the link on the left to go to the bios section) of the newsletter. We are including a writeable document that you can fill in on you computer and, after completing the document, forward to editors@hixnews.com
HICKSVILLE VIETNAM WAR ERA
MEMORIAL - PROJECT UPDATE
Donations
in May again surpassed last month with $2,070 in new receipts,
bringing the current donation total to $15,642 towards our needed goal
of $25,000 to build and maintain the Memorial!
Fourteen
new donors in March brings the total list of donors to 147
individuals, couples and organizations. If each HixNews reader
can contribute as little as $10, we will achieve our goal. Please
remember, all donations are tax deductibile.
Please
note that donations have been received from still less than 10% of theHixNews readership.
So, if you have yet to donate, please help us now.
The
Memorial's Center Plaque, which currently resides at the Hicksville
VFW Post, enables our treasurer, Bill Walden, to also have it on
display at additional donation sites, as was done for the HHS Alumni
Foundation fundraising event in April. I
would like to also note that we are very proud of Bill, who, in
addition to his work as commander of Hicksville's VFW Post, was also
recently elected commander of the Nassau County VFW!
An
alphabetical list of donors through May, along with details you
will need to mail in new donations, can be viewed in this month's
MEMORIAL UPDATE in the Honoring
Our Veterans section
of the newsletter.

in the past, when you visit this month's detailed UPDATE in The
