Once again, we had a nice room, great food and a very nice atmosphere with music provided by our own Eddie Kleinfeld. District Commander Michael Babiarz attended this year’s event, sharing his ideas on change and its ongoing effects on our organization. I was very pleased to see we have full Bridge this year, with the only exception is the XO Officer position. Additionally, this year several assistant officers as well. This is really appreciated that these members have stepped up to help. This year’s Bridge Officers are: Administration Officer: Lieutenant Commander Greg Heath Assistant Administration Officer: 1st Lieutenant Eddie Kleinfeld Education Officer: Lieutenant Commander John Colley Secretary Officer: Lieutenant Commander Marcia Thompson Assistant Secretary Officer: 1st Lieutenant LeeAnna Geiger-Stehouwer Treasurer Officer: Lieutenant Commander Char Pearson Our 2019 Executive Committee Members are Past Commander: David Ristow Past Commander: David Brinks Past Commander: Don Matthews Past Commander: Curt Campbell This springs district meeting will be held in Grand Rapids, MI. I’ve asked Greg and Eddie to work with Mary Ann Jensen and Ralph Ziegler, as both squadrons have committed to supply volunteers for the conference. Please be willing to helping out when asked and please plan on attending this great event and show District we’re are able to help put on a great event. By now you have all received your ballot on the proposed name change. If you have already sent in your ballot, I would like to say thank you. If you haven’t, please take a couple of minutes to fill it in and get it mailed back to us. Voting will end on December 18th and your voice needs to be heard. In my letter, I stated we had members up to Whitehall however was I sure wrong on that. When we received Richard Young’s ballot, he reminded me we have members in Ludington and he suggested I need to update my plotter since I was off by 35.9 nautical miles. It just proves once again; we are truly representing all of West Michigan. Our annual Christmas party this year will be at Swann Inn on December 13th and I hope to see you all there. Please remember to bring an unopened gift for the children of DA Blodgett-St. John’s. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 3 4 View From The Bridge Lt/C Greg Heath Squadron Administrative Officer Administrative News Eddie Kleinfeld and I are already hard at work coordinating our future dinner meeting locations and speakers. Eddie actually has most of the locations confirmed, as you can see below. We are now working on securing guest speakers, on which we would love to hear from you regarding topics or speakers you are interested in hearing about or have contact information on that you can share with us. This is truly the most challenging part of our task. We strive to keep our topics and speakers fresh, new, exciting and relevant. Please reach out to Eddie and myself with your ideas. Thank you.

The current National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) certificate expires at the end of 2018 and the National Basic Public Education Committee has spent the better part of 2018 securing the renewal of our NASBLA certification which is effective for a three-year period beginning January 01, 2019. The biggest changes are coming to the way the squadron offers the America's Boating Course (ABC). There is a new power point with up to date presentation, up to date state exam, and up to date answer key. The instructors can still only issue the State DNR boating Class Card with an administered State exam but the biggest change is ABC will no longer be offered online to comply with the new NASBLA certification. There are not too many other changes at the moment though. GRSPS offers several online courses. sign up to take one or take them all as a refresher... they offer volume discounts!

Then one stormy year the Christmas tree ship never came. Captain Herman Schuenemann was not as jovial as usual as he lowered the evergreens into the hold of the grand but aging schooner Rouse Simmons in a small harbor in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. It was late November of 1912, and the legendary “tree captain” and his crew of 16 had just five days to run the length of Lake Michigan and still reach Chicago by Thanksgiving. There, a loyal crowd of families and merchants would be waiting for his arrival and the festive cargo he’d been hauling for 25 years. He had not yet disappointed them. His nickname was “Santa” among the local children, but Schuenemann was no doubt thinking about money as well as holiday spirit. The tree captains of the Great Lakes made a living by sailing inexpensive old boats—boats others had deemed un-seaworthy—well into the stormy winter season on the lake.

  • Celebrate the Light! by the Rev
    Celebrate the Light! By the Rev. Kenn Stright, Ecumenical and Interfaith Relations Committee Light is important in many religions and festivals throughout the world. It is most often the symbol of the divine who brings light into the world… “Let there be light!” (Genesis 1:3). Being such a religiously diverse and multicultural nation, Canada and Canadians have many wonderful opportunities to “celebrate the light.” God is the Light of the heavens and earth. His Light is like this: there is a niche, and in it a lamp, the lamp inside a glass, a glass like a glittering star, fuelled from a blessed olive tree from neither east nor west, whose oil almost gives light even when no fire touches it—light upon light—God guides whoever He will to his Light; God draws such comparisons for people; God has full knowledge of everything—shining out in houses of worship. —Qur’an 24:35–6 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. (John 1:5) The “Where are you going?” questions below are to let people know they can go and celebrate these festivals of light regardless of faith background and all of them are found here in Canada, maybe just around the corner. Where are you going? To celebrate Diwali. It’s Diwali, come and see the lights! This is the festival of lights, celebrated by millions of Hindus, Sikhs and Jains across the world with each candle symbolizing the power of light to conquer darkness. Hindus also take advantage of this period to contemplate and dispel the darkness of ignorance.

  • It's a Christmas Tree
    It’s a Christmas Tree A few days ago, a debate boiled over in Boston when the city’s Web site referred to a giant tree erected on Boston Common as a “holiday tree.” Such a name drew instant response from Christians, including the Rev. Jerry Falwell, whose law group, the Liberty Counsel, threatened to file a lawsuit if the tree wasn’t rechristened with Christmas. “The Boston Christmas tree situation is symbolic of what’s happening … around the country,” said Matthew Staver, president and general counsel of Liberty Counsel. “Government officials, either because of misinformation, or private retailers, for politically correct reasons, are trying to secularize Christmas. To rename a Christmas tree as a holiday tree is as offensive as renaming a Jewish menorah a candlestick.” The Nova Scotia logger who cut down the 48-foot tree for Boston also was indignant. Donnie Hatt, the logger, said he would not have donated the tree if he had known of the name change. “I’d have cut it down and put it through the chipper,” he said. “If they decide it should be a holiday tree, I’ll tell them to send it back. If it was a holiday tree, you might as well put it up at Easter.” Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino said he would refer to the white spruce as a Christmas tree. The city has since restored the name to Christmas tree on its Web site. Later, Speaker J. Dennis Hastert in the U.S. House of Representatives told federal officials that the lighted, decorated tree on the West Lawn of the U.S.

  • Liberty Counsel Sample Listing of Christmas Issues
    Liberty Counsel Sample Listing of Christmas Issues The following list is a sample of the scores of Christmas-related issues in which Liberty Counsel has been involved. This list represents a small fraction of the many Christmas-related cases. Independence, MO – Management at a complex funded by the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) did not allow residents to display Christmas decorations on the outside of their properties, while they allowed other types of decorations. Liberty Counsel sent letters to the management company and then alerted HUD of the situation. HUD initiated an investigation of the company for Fair Housing Act violations. Westfield, MA - Westfield High School L.I.F.E. Bible club wanted to pass out candy canes with an attached religious message about the origin of the candy cane and Christmas to their fellow classmates during non-instructional time. They were told by the superintendent that they were not allowed to distribute the candy canes because they would be violating the rights of those around them that don’t want to hear the message. Six students in the Bible club were suspended after they distributed the candy canes with the attached religious message. One of the students was a senior and a member of the National Honor Society, and another student aspired to enter a military academy after graduation. The Honor Society student would have lost her membership in the Honor Society due to the disciplinary action and would have likely hurt her chances of obtaining a scholarship to college. Similarly, the student who wanted to attend a military academy would have hurt his chances of obtaining entrance because of the disciplinary action.

In 1752, 11 days were dropped from the year when the switch from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar was made. The December 25, date was effectively moved 11 days backwards. Some Christian church sects, called old calendarists, still celebrate Christmas on January 7 (previously December 25 of the Julian calendar). Holiday Movie Classic The film “Miracle on 34th Street” (1947) was shot during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, with Edmund Gwenn playing the role of Santa for the unsuspecting crowd. Miracle on 34th Street won three Academy Awards: Gwenn for Best Actor in a Supporting Role, Valentine Davies for Best Writing, Original Story, and George Seaton for Best Writing, Screenplay.
