SUMMARY:Annual Holiday Gathering and Toy Collection
DESCRIPTION:This morning’s meeting was different\, to say the least. Our Holiday Gathering has been a success in the past and this year was no exception. \nWe were treated to the innovative creativity of Steve DePass. Much of what Steve does is inventing the songs that he sings on the spot. They are always witty and often downright hysterical. His grasp of the English language and the creative use of rhythm and rhyme are second to no others I have ever seen. \nThe audience was asked to throw out what Steve called “fine how do you do’s.” Each of these comments no matter how difficult it would seem\, were turned  around by Steve and delivered back to the crowd in a humorous lyric. Most of the time the audience could not see it coming\, leaving the crowd surprised at the songs he weaves on the spot. The nature of humor is the ability to break through the audiences expectations and deliver something that catches the audience off guard. He succeeded magnificently. \nWith all of this Steve DePass is a serious man. His insights on friendship\, race\, and loving relations places him in a category that distinguishes from the journeyman entertainer. In a conversation that I once had with Steve I told him that I used to pay someone $150 an hour to speak to me like that. He laughed and told me that those people charge more than that now. \nSteve has developed several programs that are designed to communicate the positive meanings of “Black History Month”. He will be performing these programs at colleges and corporate venues. He is very proud of this effort\n\nThese programs  are fun filled musical programs featuring the audience inter-active song improvisations which have hallmarked Steve’s long and distinguished career. If you have an interest in Steve DePass’s work he has asked me to field calls at my LIMBA number. 631 757-6663

SUMMARY:Southwest Airlines
DESCRIPTION:Our speaker at LIMBA\, this morning was Loretta Hohmann\, from Southwest Airlines. Loretta was not scheduled to speak\, but the person who was supposed to speak was flying in from the west and was weather delayed. As it turns out\, it didn’t matter. Ms Hohmann is very knowledgeable. Ms Hohmann began by speaking about the relationship the Southwest has built with the Town of Islip. From the beginning SW wanted major improvements at the airport. These airport upgrades would be paid for by SW and the improved property would remain in the ownership of the Town. This proved to be very attractive to the Town of Islip and satisfied the physical plant needs that SW said it needed to operate.\nMs Hohmann then spoke about the community involvement that the airline considers important from the standpoint of good community relations and a sense of corporate citizenship. In each of SW’s markets they have a program called “home for the holidays”. This program allows elderly people of limited means to travel at the airlines expense during holiday periods to see family members. They select one family from each of their markets.\nShe spoke briefly about a company BLOG\, where information can be exchanged on line. It is located at www.blogsouthwest.com\nSouthwest likes to operate out of smaller airports\, whenever possible. According to Hohmann the landing fees are lower and the efficiency of moving aircraft on time is better. Islip-MacArthur certainly fits that airport profile\, and they are happy with the arrangements they have made there. The company maintains an excellent cooperative relationship with other carriers. Sometime they help each other out with equipment and services\, such as snow removal.\nIn addition to airport selection\, Southwest attributes some of their financial success to standardized aircraft. If a plane is pulled out of service\, the replacement plane will be like the one that was sidelined and the crew is capable of flying it.\nDuring the Q&A portion of the program I asked if a light rail system would be built to tie the terminal to the LIRR train station. Ms Hohmann said the original plan was to put the terminal next to the rail system\, and that plan was blocked by the Town. However they have a shuttle bus to the train that costs $5 that is operated by Colonial Coach.\nWhen we closed the meeting Southwest raffled off a ticket for any place in the US that is served by the company.\nWe welcome Southwest and we pledged to support any reasonable enhancements that they think they should be made to serve the region better.
