IN MEMORY OF KEITH ROMAINE

1973-2009

"To laugh often and much: to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children: to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends: to appreciate beauty: to find the best in others: to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition: to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.  This is to have succeeded."

Ralph Waldo Emerson

FAMILY FUN NIGHT A HUGE SUCCESS

Our 3rd Annual "Family Fun Night" was a huge success. It was held on Thursday, August 27 at the Village Green Miniature Golf Course in Ronkonkoma. An overwhelming crowd of close to 200 people jammed the two golf courses at Village Green. Everyone from the smallest child to the oldest adult had a great time. After their round golfers were treated to ice cream and soda and had the opportunity to purchase tickets for one or more of the 75 prizes given away that evening.

Our own Councilwoman and Deputy Supervisor, Kathy Walsh was a lovely and gracious hostess as always. This 3rd annual event was the best yet thanks to the efforts of Chairperson Theresa Sperduto and her committee. You all did a wonderful job. Special thank goes out to the close to 40 individuals and business that purchased hole sponsor signs and to all those who donated the prizes. Can't wait till next year.

TIM MAZZEI HOSTS VETERANS

Tim Mazzei held a breakfast to honor veterans from the town of Brookhaven at his headquarters in Medford on Saturday, March 14th. The event was attended by veterans from all branches of the armed forces and included veterans from WWII to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The event was co-hosted by our 2008 candidate for U.S. Congress from the 1st Congressional District, Lee Zeldin. The event was also attended by County Legislator Ed Romaine, Town Councilman Keith Romaine and Town Councilwoman Kathy Walsh.

The overflow crowd listened to Tim thank them for their service and was visibly choked up when he shared stories about his father, who was a prisoner of war for two years in Stalag 17.

OUR FEBRUARY MEETING

We held our February meeting on Tuesday, February 24 at Brookhaven Republican Headquarters. Our guest speaker was Christopher Nixon Cox. Chris not only spoke on how we can rebuild the Republican Party in our area and the state, but also listened to suggestions by those in attendance on how we can rebuild the GOP.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed listening to what Chris had say and appreciated the opportunity to share their thoughts with him. We especially enjoyed the special memories Chris shared with us of his Grandfather, President Richard M. Nixon, the 37th President of the United States.

We thank Chris for taking the time to speak to us and hope he will visit us again soon. To view more pictures of the event, click on the title or on the link below.
