Chapter 139 Holiday Party a great success!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More than 50 members and guests attended the 2025 potluck lunch, and enjoyed the annual White Elephant gift exchange. If you couldn’t make it this year, we missed you and hope to see you next year. If you did attend, it was great sharing a meal with you, and the joy of the Holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At our July monthly meeting, Chapter member and National Rep Jeff Zuspan presented Chapter President Gordon Shahin and members Bob Kleeman, Andy Staton, and Marcus Bush with Certificates of Appreciation for the Chapter’s contributions to the National in volunteer and in kind support, as well as monetary support, and our overall achievements as a Chapter. Many Chapter members that are not pictured also contributed greatly to the work the Chapter has done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 139 members volunteering at the National Headquarters!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last month several members made a trip to National Headquarters in Pennsylvania to spend time doing volunteer work at the Museum. Rory McEvoy (Executive Director) acknowledged their participation in a recent newsletter<\/strong>. If you are a member, and not receiving the National newsletter, visit the site to sign up. It\u2019s a quick and easy way to learn more about what the National Headquarters and Museum are doing, and what members are helping out with. Here is the relevant excerpt regarding our chapter\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSix visitors from San Jacinto (Texas) Chapter 139 flew to Pennsylvania in late March and gave us some fantastic assistance in completing upgrades to the Museum galleries and School teaching spaces. This included conservation work on an E. Howard 0-size striking tower clock, set building in the galleries, and storage improvements at the School. It was an absolute pleasure to work together, share some (often terrible) jokes, and unwind together after hours.<\/code><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The volunteers from Chapter 139 were Ralph Pokluda, Andy Staton, Marcus Bush, Jeff Zuspan, Gibson Bush, and Bob Kleeman.<\/em>\u201c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
