December 9 

Hello all,

I know it's still awhile away, but I wanted to get this to you so you can plan to attend.

The plan for the December luncheon is to hold it at Plant 1 instead of Plant 6. As you remember, at last December's meeting, our Joe Shiver spoke about all the changes that were going to happen. Well, they're now all in place, so we'd like to fulfill our promise to have the retirees be among the very first from the community to see inside.

Vera has scheduled a speaker (Diane Clikeman-Miller). My thought is, after Diane speaks, we would offer plant tours to all who are interested.

Your thoughts & comments welcome…I

One of the most interesting sites I have ever seen. Just put your mouse on a city anywhere in the world and the newspaper headlines pop up...  Double click and the page gets larger....  I thought you all would like to know about this site, if you don't already. I also found you can read the entire paper on some if you click on the right place. You can spend forever here.

Dear Retiree,

Congratulations: Welcome to the Wonderful World of Retirement

Many of you will be inclined to sit back and watch time go by, while others will engage in their favorite hobby, sport or volunteer project. Some will even look for a part time job to fill their time.

Regardless of the path you choose, one good way to enjoy retirement is to join the “Hamilton Sundstrand Retirees Club.” Our regular meeting is held on the second Wednesday of each month at a location and time as announced in the “Reporter”, our monthly on-line newspaper. This paper also highlights other less formal breakfast and lunches that are held at various times and has pictures of many of the attendees.

To join and make new friends or reacquaint with old friends access the “Reporter” at;
