A message from Bill Hatch, Health & Welfare Officer
I would like to thank the Board of Officers and the entire membership of the Hudson Valley 10-13 for the fantastic gift of the "Edible" basket of fruit. My recovery from spinal surgery has not been progressing as quickly as I had hoped. After spending a week at NYU Hospital for Joint Disease, I was transferred to Helen Hayes Hospital and following 2 weeks of Acute Rehabilitation I was about to be discharged when I experienced a T.I.A., a "mini-stroke" with stroke-like symptoms but, hopefully, with no lasting damage. After numerous tests at Nyack Hospital, I was permitted to go home where I am receiving nursing and rehabilitation services by the Nyack Hospital Home Care. Hope to be up and around in the not too distant future. Again, I would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers and the beautiful gift basket.

Hudson Valley 10-13 Assoc., Inc. History
The Hudson Valley 10-13 Association was founded in 1986 by Tom Mullins, with the invaluable assistance of John Gowrie. The first meeting was held on May 18, 1986, at the Haverstraw Elks Lodge #877. Pat Harley (d.), a retired Sergeant, and Exalted Ruler of Lodge #877, was able to arrange for the meeting to be held at the lodge without cost. As more and more 'local' Associations were created, the National NYCPD 10-13 Association, Inc. was formed to provide a unified legislative voice for all retirees regardless of where they resided. The Hudson Valley 10-13 Association is further distinguished by being a driving force, and charter member, of the National.
The first meeting was attended by over forty retirees of all ranks. From that initial group, an organizing committee was formed, and Tom Mullins was appointed its chairman. The committe met weekly at Tom's house, utilizing his den for a base of operations. Every meeting was attended by no fewer than ten members, and the committee met until the very first Board of Officers was installed in January 1987. Later that year, on December 1, the Association was officially incorporated in New York State.
In the beginning, meetings were held at either the Haverstraw Elks or the Rockland Lake Manor, located on Rt. 9W in Congers (now Town & Country), which is where the first Board of Officers installation ceremony was held. Afterwards, meetings were held in a variety of locations in Rockland, Orange and Westchester counties. Some months, three meetings were held, one in each county! A decision was then made to hold meetings in Rockland exclusively because the cost of moving the meeting from one county to another proved prohibitive, and also because the majority of members lived in Rockland. Early on, charter member John Hayes introduced the Association to the William DeBevoise Jr. American Legion Post#1682 in New City, and thanks to the efforts of charter member Jim Ferris, the Association has called the Post home since the early 1990's.
Today, the Hudson Valley 10-13 Association membership is over 900 members strong and is drawn from all ranks of the NYPD. It is now the second largest of all the NYPD 10-13 Associations in the United States and looks forward to its continued growth and solidarity.

Verizon Discount for Retired & Active NYPD MOS
Verizon Wireless offers a 19% discount for retired and active MOS. You will need to visit a Verizon store and provide proof ie: your ID Card. The discount pretty much offsets one of the many taxes imposed on wireless phone service, the exact one escapes my memory at this moment. The amount is not great, but every 'lil bit helps these days!
Some tips from my personal experience:
Some tips from my personal experience:
- Check your bill to make sure the discount is being applied every month. Take nothing for granted!
- If you ever begin a new contract, say to get more minutes or a better phone, specifically ASK for the discount and check to see its been applied. You can't assume it just carries over!
Another thing to keep your eye with regard to the discount is that when you change your locale, say to NC, FLA or NEV, and you keep your number (why would ya get a new one!?!?), you may still be billed for NYS taxes in addition to your new 'home' state taxes!
Pete Palmer of the Charlotte 10-13, stumbled upon this little nugget recently during a visit to a Verizon store to address an unrelated problem. So, if you move outta NYS and take your number with you, when you get setup in your new abode, check the bill!! It's not a lot of money, but again, every 'lil bit helps. Plus, you don't live here any more! And don't forget to get that discount!

MARCH 09 President's Message
A special Thanks to all members and guests who attended the installation dinner in December. The Board of Officers for the 2009~2010 term was sworn in by the Honorable Victor J. Alfieri, Jr. Although the weather wa snot favorable, we had a great turnout.
For those snowbirds hiding out in Florida, and other warmer places, welcome back! You certainly picked a great time to be awayfrom the Hudson Valley area as we certainly had our share of cold spells and a great deal of snow. We are all looking forward to an early spring.
The number one issue concerning the Hudson Valley 10-13 is still the Health Protection Bill. We will continue to work with the National 10-13 and the Alliance of Public Retirees to accomplish the goal of having this bill passed, as well as any other bills affecting retirees.
We are all apprehensive about the state of the economy. Threats of budget-cuts are raging. We, as a group, cannot afford to lose any of our benefits. One of the ways the membership can participate in helping to support our goal is to take part in our annual Lobby Day, scheduled for May 20th. This is the one day a year we travel as a group to Albany to emphasize our needs and concerns to our representatives. There is strength in numbers. The larger the group, the louder the voice! Call the HV10-13 phone number to reserve a seat on the bus.
Looking forward to seeing you at our next meeting, March 12, 7:30PM at the American Legion. We will be having a special guest speaker who will be talking about the great American pastime, BASEBALL.
Best regards
Best regards
