Carrabelle Chamber of Commerce e-newsletter

 

 

May 27, 2011


This Memorial Day weekend bring the family and visit The Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum. Located in the Carrabelle Municipal complex, we will also be open on Memorial Day to honor the memory of all our fallen heroes.

View over 4,000 square feet of war artifacts, rifles, photos, uniforms, a barracks room display, as well as a small theatre showing interviews with veterans. We guarantee you’ll get a true sense and feel of what it was like to serve here in Franklin County during those turbulent war years.

Be sure to see the U.S. Army WWII “Duck” as well as the “Jeep”. We also have on display a recreated WWII German Lieferwagen utility truck.

Entry is by donation. The facility is handicap accessible. Also, the 50th visitor on Monday, May 30th will receive a free tee shirt  and Poster showing the Headquarters area. You will also be given free CGJA membership for one year. If you have any WWII veterans in your family, you might want to bring them along.

Make this Memorial Day a “memory day” in the true sense of the word.

May 28th, Hulon Crayton and the On Call Band

JURY DUTY- DO NOT DELETE WITHOUT READING !


 
    JURY DUTY SCAM

    Pass this  on to your grown children and anyone else you can think of. This has been verified by the FBI (their link is also included below). Please pass this on to everyone in your email address book. It is spreading fast so be prepared    should you get this call. Most of us take those summonses for jury duty seriously, but enough people skip out on their civic duty that a new and ominous kind of fraud has surfaced.

    The caller claims to be a jury  DUTY  coordinator. If you protest  that  you never received a summons for jury duty, the Scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Give out any of this information and bingo, your identity was just stolen.

    The fraud  has been reported so far in 11 states, including Oklahoma , Illinois , and  Colorado , AZ and more. This (swindle) is particularly insidious because they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving information  by pretending they are with the court system.

    The FBI and  the federal court system have issued nationwide alerts on their web sites,  warning consumers about the fraud.
