Attention members!  The annual meeting will take place on April 11, 2019 at the American Legion Hall, 200 E Union St, Newark.  The evening will include the annual elections along with dinner and a program.

Members will gather starting at 6:00 with dinner at or shortly before 7:00.  Reservations are appreciated by April 8th by calling 315-331-6409 or by using the contact form.  Payment may be made at the door.  The cost is $25/person, all inclusive.

Following dinner, we are honored to have a presentation by local author and former Wayne County Historian Marjory Allen Perez.  Author of four books, her most recent work explores the stories of local black soldiers during the Civil War and reveals a fascinating look at a relatively unknown aspect of local history.
