From the Helm Gary Nasby- Commandant Hiram I. Bearss Det. #089 A couple of things or ideas that need to get re-energized this month are:

1 The Plank Program: (this issue Page 10) PLANK OWNERS of Marine Barracks Indy Be Part of Making a Home for Marines and Family Mem-bers to Gather. Be Part of Preserving our Heritage and Traditions. Having the title of Plank Owner includes certain rights and privilegesincluding bragging rights of being part of the beginning of a new adventure for Marines in Indiana. GOAL Payoff the building loan, and make improvements to the property. *** You can make installment payments to reach the level you want*** 2 HIB Car Donation Program- Are you thinking of selling or trading in that old car, boat or RV? Why not donate your car to us in-stead? As a charitable contribution your car donation could make a big difference to us, AND GIVES YOU A TAX DEDUCTION. Information can be found here: http://indymarines.org/pages/cardonation.htm We just received a sizeable check for a donated car from HIB member Lance Long. Thanks Lance! 3 Our Staples ink Rewards Program. Bring your old ink and toner cartridges to the Detachment office and we will recycle them to buy needed office supplies. 4 Starting an HIB Color Guard: We have the M-1 rifles and now we need the people to volunteer to become a member of this unit.
