President’s Message:
April 2008
Our March luncheon guest speaker was actor and retired
NYPD Captain, Joseph Lisi. Joe provided us a unique glimpse into the
world of television, movie, and stage acting. His
perspectives were especially entertaining and insightful, considering
his art often literally imitates his professional life: a cop
playing a cop. Joe’s life story is
the quintessential example of the pursuit and realization of the
American Dream. As he so eloquently
expressed, his life-long dream was to become a cop and an actor. He was
able to do both. Congratulations Joe and
many thanks for taking the time to share your story with our membership.
Our April luncheon guest speaker will be Michael
J. Mansfield, Commissioner of the New York City Business Integrity
Commission (BIC). The mission of BIC
is to eliminate organized crime and other forms of corruption and
criminality from the industries it regulates. BIC's goals are numerous:
to ensure that the regulated businesses are able to compete fairly;
that its marketplaces remain free from violence, fraud, rackets, and
threats; that customers receive fair treatment; and that the
businesses, which are allowed to operate in these industries, always
conduct their affairs with honesty and integrity.
Please keep in mind that our Annual
Dinner Cruise will be held on Thursday, June 19, 2008.
As we did last year, we will set sail aboard the Atlantica,
launching from Pier 17, at the South Street Seaport.
We encourage members to reserve tickets early, as
the cruise is a popular event that books fast. Reservations
can be made by calling 917-579-7593 or dropping us a line at breilly@aaple.org.
The winners of the AAPLE College Scholarships
will be drawn and announced during the cruise. If
you are submitting a child or grandchild for a scholarship, please read
the College Scholarship
Application, which is included with this
newsletter, carefully. Remember to
complete all required captions.
The annual AAPLE Golf Outing will be held
this year on Monday, September 22, 2008, at the Village Club at Lake Success. The Village Club is located in Nassau County,
just east of the Queens border. This is the same location where the 2006 AAPLE
Golf Outing was held. It is a beautiful and challenging course.
The
following are tentative dates for upcoming AAPLE events.
Luncheons are presently held at the American Stock
Exchange, 86 Trinity
