Hello! Well, how's this for a win-win: the Soldiers' Sailors' Marines' Coast Guard and Airmen's Club now has a Thrift store near McGuire AFB/Ft.Dix in New Jersey, which will open within the next few weeks - and we need donations!
The Club is a 501(c)3 non-profit, and will provide a donation receipt for your tax records.

The SSMAC will take all of your 'gently' used, saleable goods such as:
clothing kitchen items/cookware working small electrics
furniture dishes watches etc!
books shoes artwork
jewelry toys rugs
Starting today, you can drop off your items at the SSMAC, which is located at 283 Lexington Avenue @ 37th Street - phone: 212-683-4353. If you have large furniture items, please call and we may be able to assist and pick up from you.

BOLO: Sturgeon Tag last known location near Dobbs Ferry
16/07/08 00:34
Date: Friday, July
11, 2008, 12:33 PM
Good Afternoon Commanders,
Please see the attached message from the Yonkers Boat and Canoe Club. They are looking for a satellite tag from a sturgeon fish in our area. They believe it fell off near Dobbs Ferry. Please read and get out to the deck plate so if anyone comes across it on patrol they can alert the proper authorities.
Thank You,
Kevin

Original Notice (Hudson River Almanac, 24 June, follows):
6/24 - Dobbs Ferry, HRM 23: In order to learn of their movements within the
Hudson River estuary and along the Atlantic coast, the NYSDEC Hudson River
Fisheries Unit applies satellite tags to some of the Atlantic sturgeon we
capture and release. Recently, one of our satellite tags popped off an adult
Atlantic sturgeon near Dobbs Ferry in the Tappan Zee. We do not have an
exact location - it could be on either side of the river - but we are
thinking more likely on the Dobbs Ferry side. If anyone is out canoeing,
kayaking, or boating in the area, please keep an eye out for it. It would be
very much appreciated. The tag floats, is cylindrical, black, and 6.5 inches
long, not counting the antenna.
