The New England Country Music Bylaw book explains that no membership lists are allowed to be copied and handed out to anyone.  This is in an effort to protect your privacy.
However at the May 2008 NECMC meeting, a vote was taken and passed to include an "option" on our 2009 applications for all members to decide for themselves whether they will allow their addresses to be given to others ONLY for the purpose of sending cards or notes in the event of  illness of a member or a death in a member's family or the death of a member. 

Also, we would like your permission to use your photo in the "Celebrity Contest."  We would appreciate it if you will allow us to make you a "Celebrity" in our newsletter- this too, is optional.

Just let us know if you want to be included in these lists;

To our loyal New England Country Music Club Members--

COMING UP--SUNDAY -July 18, 2010- as always at our "home base" the
VFW #1385
13 Cross Road  (Rte. 16)
Uxbridge, MA
From Noon - 5:00 PM
DINNER DONATIONS-$6.00

St Jude Children's Hospital Benefit!

We'll be waiting for you at the door!
and Jeannie our favorite bartender will be waiting to serve you in the hall!
See Ya Then,
Stay Well & Healthy!
...and when you're in the neighborhood and you want a good place to relax OR you're looking for a great hall for a special function you are planning...
THINK OF THE UXBRIDGE VFW FIRST!
Contact Anne for Hall Rental-- 508-278-7540  You'll be glad you did!!!
With a little bit of luck, this button should take you to the top of the page--
try it just for laughs!!!!
Well, maybe it won't.  We will keep trying.
...In case you're wondering why this page has "Durango Mango" in its address, it is merely because it has been created as a special page off of our band's website. 

The reason, you ask?  We'll tell you.
We pay dearly for our band site but we have unlimited pages to work with--

SO!  This e-letter is not costing your club a dime... no fees, no labor
(although there is lots of it, it is a labor of LOVE)

AND Homestead.com is probably one of the easiest sites to work in. 
If you are planning your own page try them. 

...you will probably ALSO notice the only link to our band's site is in there with the
rest of the club's band sites-- hence no one can get their "nylons in a wad" over us taking advantage of our own site to God Forbid, promote our own band. However, we wouldn't mind if you do visit Durango Mango's website- you are always welcome!
Next meeting will be

Remember - NECMC meeting night is now the 1st Monday of each month. 
Exceptions- No Meeting in July- Vacation Month—AND the first Monday of September is Labor Day—
Members present at the May meeting voted to cancel September’s meeting—THIS MEANS- We will have a lot to discuss and accomplish at the June 7th and August 2nd meetings.

Monday June 7, 7:00 PM   NO MEETING IN JULY   Monday August 2, 7:00 PM  NO MEETING SEPTEMBER 6  (Labor Day)



We WILL accept not only mail in- but sealed envelopes at our jamborees with your name and the correctly identified celebrity’s name before the deadline date. Then, we will enter all the names of ALL our members who have mailed OR handed us the correct answer.  This will make it easier for you to participate if you can’t mail your answer before deadline time.  —but please don’t make it difficult for us- No phone calls please and we prefer a sealed envelope merely so your submission won’t get lost with all the other paperwork we carry back and forth to Jamborees... and, for your efforts
You could win a FREE meal!  The most it will cost you is an envelope and/or a stamp...and that’s a DEAL!

NEW POLICY to make even the odds for everyone!
All entries will be placed in a “lottery” to select the winner.

Congratulations to Shirley Stirk-- She knew April's Celebrity was M. Frank Merrill!
Our members decided it would be better to take the “Block Party” indoors since July can be sweltering and the VFW has air conditioning. ( easy choice) However, we are going to make it feel like a Block Party with Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, Potato Salad—things to make it feel like a “cook-out.”  In fact, it will be an IN-door Cook-OUT!  No bugs, no pouring rain or beating sun...just a nice comfortable venue to hold a fundraiser for one of the best foundations on earth! --- LOOK who ELSE is a St. Jude supporter-


Chris Young has been helping raise money for St. Jude Children's
Research Hospital since he was in  grade school and is still a huge supporter
of the hospital even to this day.  Since Chris is supportive  of the hospital,
so is his fan club.  They are currently supporting the hospital through the Country Fans
Care for St. Jude Kids fundraising program.

A little "heads up" folks-- Chris has sent some Chris Young merchandise for raffle
at our Benefit Jamboree!  You could win an autographed CD, a T-shirt or ---
I'm not tellin' come to the St. Jude Children's Hospital Benefit
Sunday July 18, 2010 and Find Out!!! 

Thanks, Chris !!
