As the holidays
rapidly approach, we are reminded of the spirit of giving. As a
SCECA member for nearly 30 years, I have witnessed this spirit
from many members and associates. It was quite prevalent as we
joined with LIPA and others to help the Suffolk County Girl
Scouts at Camp Edey. Using materials donated by Schwing Electric
Supply we installed several 100-amp services to power the
scouts’ Holiday Light Show. It is a wonderful display, and the
fee, $12 per carload, goes to a very worthy cause. (You might
find a $2 coupon online, or in a local paper.) As you drive
through the display, following the music at FM 89.3, you’ll hear
SCECA mentioned among the main sponsors of the show. We hope
you’ll enjoy and share a sense of pride in your Association.

Our upcoming General meeting will feature an abbreviated agenda,
with a buffet and soft drinks, so we can celebrate with our
colleagues. All current members are welcome to attend.

In the November issue of The Light, I did not make specific
mention of past-Pres. Bill Gubing. However, this time of year
brings to mind his role as Santa Claus. Bill was missing the
belly, but donned the outfit when SCECA met at the Bavarian Inn
for our annual Holiday Party. He was so convincing that folks
from other parties insisted on having photos taken with Santa
Bill.

We can’t guarantee that a jolly elf will visit, but we’ll have
plenty of good food, good friends and good cheer. We hope you’ll
join us.

We wish you Happy and Healthy Holidays from SCECA Board and
Officers. Drive safely!
