"Actions Will Be My Words"

Hello Waterfowlers - My name is Curt Matzinger, and, as most of you know, I was elected President of the SSWA at the April meeting.
Anybody who knows me will attest that I am truly a waterfowling enthusiast (nut). I do love the sport and I will try to give this position my full 110%. I will do all I can to make this year interesting, informative, and financially rewarding for our club.
One of my downfalls is that I'm NOT a public speaker. One-on-one I never shut up. Put me in front of a group or in the position of giving a speech and I become tongue tied. I'm much better behind the spotlight.
What I plan on doing is making my actions be my words. I'll try to top last year's Duckboat Show, start up more projects, have interesting meetings, and strive to make our club better than ever.
Please, bear with me and I'll see you at the meetings.

Curt

Thank You

I would like to thank all of the members who helped out at the shows and festivals we attended this year. The SSWA was at the SASI Show, Nassau Coliseum, Patchogue Antique Decoy Collectors, Stony Brook Museum, West Sayville Show, DU Conservation Day, DU Youth Day, as well as our Duckboat Show & Waterfowl Festival. I greatly appreciate all the time and help you devoted to your club.

Thank you very much, Curt

SSW A Mourns a Loss

It has come to my attention of the loss of one of our Past President's Fred Casemen. Due to this information coming to me on short notice, I could not get a proper "Past President Profile" together. Any member who knew Fred, please contact me at (631) 661-0379 so I can gather the information for our next newsletter. Thanks.

Curt
