Welcome To The Rockland County Shields

We hosted our annual “Candidates Night” at the October General Membership Meeting.  Another great job by our moderator, Christian Cortelli.

Everyone on the ballot in Rockland County was invited to our meeting.   We had a great turnout.  As we move forward, we wish good luck and wisdom to those who were successful in their races.

Also, New York State has changed the law regarding election cycles.   Elections for several offices must now be held on even numbered years.  Many candidates who  ran for office at the county and town level this year must run again in 2026.

I would like to remind everyone to keep track of the performance of those in office.   See if they deliver what they promised, and don’t hesitate to send a letter to make your views known.

Check your mailbox!  DUES RENEWALS for 2026 will be sent out in December.  Please send in dues payments ASAP so we can get those new membership cards and window decals out.

The Shields is now using “Zelle”.  Dues can be sent to:  PayRocklandShields@gmail.com

A current membership card shows that annual dues have been paid and you are a member in good standing.  Pursuant to the By-Laws: “entrance to the meeting is for members in good standing”.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Fraternally,
Ed Weireter
