July, 2009 Newsletter
Dear Fellow Members:
The Amity Club is one based on a rich tradition of providing premier events for its members. As we move through the halfway point of 2009, I am happy to report, this tradition is alive and well. June’s event at Montgomery Country Club was an outstanding event. The weather forecaster got the forecast wrong, the course was in great shape, the food was enjoyable and most important – everybody left the clubhouse with a smile after dinner. For those of you who were unable to attend the event, there was also an unofficial, but special, “Passing of The Torch,” when Harry Hofberg’s grandson, Jaime Cohen, got the call of “Stand up, Jamie!” and delivered a beautiful Motzi.
Our next event will take place on July 20th at Chartwell Country Club. Chartwell is one of the premier country clubs in Maryland, and this will be an event not to be missed. Please mark your calendars to be sure you can come.
I want to thank Michael Sadagursky for working on this year’s overnight trip to Carroll Valley. The trip is scheduled for August 9th and 10th. Details for this event will be sent by Evite later this week. We will need an accurate headcount and payment by July 5th. Please respond to the Evite as soon as possible.
Finally, I want to once again thank all of you for your kind words and smiles. Putting on this calendar takes a diligent effort, not just from me, but also from all of our officers and past presidents. Your appreciation makes it worth it to all of us. On that note, let me wish you all a great start to summer and a Happy Fourth of July. I hope to see you all at Chartwell. And remember … Amity ain’t failed you yet.
Fondly,
Adam

We are still seeking articles and advertising for our Amity Business Newsletter. Amity is about community and we are all in business and mostly self-employed. So, this feels like a good fit for Amity. We hope that we can all do more business with each other. So, if you want to be able to place ads or promotions in the newsletter, send me an email. The cost is $25 per year and the money will go into the Charity Fund.
Send $25 to Steve Weisman at 15400 Calhoun Drive, Suite 120, Rockville, 20855. Then send an email with a brief description of your business and/or an offer for a discount or special offer for your services to me at stu.kushner@amityclubofwashington.org.
Our Business Newsletter members will be able to create up to four ads per year. We can include graphics too! I look forward to hearing from you and all of us working together to create business for and with each other.
