2013 Membership Luncheons

January luncheon:

Thank you to Mayor Bennett as he shared changes and advancements in and around the county and our fair City. A number of new businesses and housing developments are expected- and we haven’t stopped growing. He also spoke of the transportation changes on Routes 22, and 40 over the next few years. Mike Gilbert, our sponsor, with R.M. & R. Company, Inc. is ready to tackle those issues around your house, big or small.

February luncheon:

We welcomed Sheriff Jessie Bane, who shared the counties focus continues to be on drug, violent crimes, guns, gangs and crimes against children. He also mentioned that motor vehicle fatalities in the county are due to excessive speed, not belted or distracted drivers, the key being electronic devises. Both the County and the City of Aberdeen continue to create awareness around the dangers or texting and driving. They are also working on project safe streets- which focuses on career criminals and repeat offenders. Thank you our sponsor Auto Auction of Baltimore, the American Legion or hosting, and Short Rite Klein’s for catering.
