On this Veterans Day, we were proud to witness Sergeant first class Scott MacDonald, a grown-up Club member, give the keynote address at the American Legion's Observance Event. Although separated by decades in their military and Club experiences, grown up Clubber Kevin MacNamara also joined him on stage as a Distinguished Honoree. One of the ways we thank all Veterans and their families for sacrifices made in honor of freedom is by granting free Club memberships to all children of active service members.

With sadness, we announce the passing of Eric Nardone. Eric was a fixture in the Game Room at 101 Dalby Street and later helped with the transition to 675 Watertown Street. A kind man who liked to have fun, he was a guardian of fair play who engaged the members on their terms and at their level. Eric's efforts earned him Volunteer of the Year honors in 1996 and as late as 2011, he returned to devote several hours per week in support of the kids. Eric fearlessly faced many physical challenges and his confident presence at the Club helped kids to understand and respect each other's differences. He is remembered for selflessly giving his time to help the Club grow during a time when resources were scarce.
