JUNE 9 ROMEO BREAKFAST MEETING
ROMEO NEWS
We were pleased to hear from Dekalb County Sheriff Jeff Mann at our MAY breakfast meeting. Sheriff Mann opened our eyes as to the breadth, scope and importance of the Sheriff Departments vast operation as well as their programs and responsibilities. Not many of us knew that our Dekalb County Sheriff's Department earned the coveted Triple Crown Accreditation Award (38 Departments out of 3000). Great job Sheriff and our thanks.
Our meeting was "spiced up" with an unplanned visit from Representative Jack Kingston which made it a 2 for 1 event for the nice ROMEO group attending.
We will have a change of pace at our JUNE 9 meeting as the result of suggestions from THE ROMEOS. We will not have a speaker, but rather opted for a plain, old fellowship gathering which we hope everyone is looking forward to. We would like to hear from those attending with suggestions/requests for speakers at our meetings for July through November as we have purposely left the calendar open. Please come and be heard.
NOTE: Please save Sunday December 7, 2014 for our joint ROMEO/JULIET Annual Christmas Dinner beginning at 600 PM tied in with our support for the Dunwoody Police Department "Christmas For Kids" program.

A Village Mill Tradition
4th of July Veterans Bows
The time is approaching for you to honor family members who have served or are now serving in the military. Bows should be displayed on mailboxes from June 28th through July 5th. This has been a Village Mill tradition for many years.
Take a moment and reflect on who you would like to honor if you yourself have not served. A grandfather who served in World War II? An uncle who was drafted after graduation from high school? A great aunt who served as a nurse in Korea? If you wish to honor more than one person, two bows will fit on most mailboxes.
The Veterans Bows are $5 and color coded by branch of service: Green for Army, red for Marine Corps, dark blue for Navy or Coast Guard and light blue for Air Force. All bows contain yellow ribbon, the international color for peace.
You can contact Julian Black at 770-396-5997 to order your bows.
Village Mill Military Bow History: Our long time neighbor, Bob Keesee, started and managed this program for a number of years. Bob passed away in 2011 and Julian Black accepted the honor to continue this tradition. Our neighbor, Susan West, has been the expert Veterans Bow maker for a number of years. Thanks to Susan for her nice work.
