MARCH 2006 REPORT by Charles Brecheisen

Greetings Altair shipmates. Here is your monthly report for March 2006.

SHIPMATES: We have one new shipmate that boarded ship in March bringing the total count to 402 shipmates.. Please welcome aboard :

Jesse B. Jones, SH2, 1953-1955. Jesse resided in Jackson, TN

DUES: The reduced cost of dues to $10 seem to be working. Thanks to all sending in dues!

FINANCIAL: The beginning March balance was $861.26 with income of $220.00 and no expenses leaving a balance of $1081.27.

ALTAIR NEWSLETTER: I am finishing up the Altair newsletter and only have a couple of spaces to add material. I am waiting for a couple of shipmates to send in their bios and the newsletter should be mailed in a couple of weeks.

ALTAIR REUNION: There have been a few shipmates questioning when our next reunion would be held; and where. Good questions! After our first reunion in Norfolk in 2004, emotions were running high to have another reunion. Those "emotions" sort of petered out. But, we (another shipmate) is in the process of checking out Charleston, SC as a possible site. I will keep all posted.

All for now. Please contact me with any questions or comments.

Best Regards To All:
