Fisher House Foundation is best known for a network of comfort homes where military and veterans’ families can stay at no cost while a loved one is receiving treatment.

These homes are located at major military and VA medical centers nationwide, close to the medical center or hospital they serve. Fisher Houses have up to 21 suites, with private bedrooms and baths. Families share a common kitchen, laundry facilities, a warm dining room and an inviting living room. Fisher House Foundation ensures that there is never a lodging fee. Since inception, the program has saved military and veterans’ families an estimated $282 million in out of pocket costs for lodging and transportation.

Fisher House Foundation also operates the Hero Miles program, using donated frequent flyer miles to bring family members to the bedside of injured service members as well as the Hotels for Heroes program using donated hotel points to allow family members to stay at hotels near medical centers without charge. The Foundation also manages a grant program that supports other military charities and scholarship funds for military children, spouses and children of fallen and disabled veterans.

Connect to the Fisher House Foundation website for more information about the organization.

Town Wide Clean-Up - Saturday April 11th, 2014

It takes a lot to make a town look good, and it can't be done on its own.

So, once again, it's time. Come out and clean up the roadsides with us.

If you want to focus on your own street or a specific area, then call Jim Ventres at the East Haddam Land Use Administrator's Office [860-873-5031] to coordinate the effort or e-mail Will Brady [MSC website coordinator] at moodussportsman@gmail.com.

We can't promise you'll find a hidden treasure, but sometimes what we find can be pretty strange.

PLUS THERE 
IS LUNCH !!!

Anyone who takes part in the effort is invited to the Moodus Sportsmen's Club for one of its famous hearty lunches. Traditional picnic items such as hot dogs, baked beans, coffee and iced tea and lemonade will be served along with the seasonal bounty only a sportsmen’s club could serve.

At the lunch gathering we can inventory items collected and talk about ways and solutions to reduce these problems.We will have information about the Town’s natural resources and outdoor recreational opportunities that are available to all.

This effort is co-sponsored by the Moodus Sportsmen's Club, East Haddam Lions and Scout Troop #22.

Archery Sunday Hunting Bills

There are two on the legislative docket

H.B. No. 5028 - AN ACT AUTHORIZING SUNDAY HUNTING ON PRIVATE PROPERTY

To authorize Sunday hunting on private lands by bow and arrow

H.B. No. 5284 - AN ACT AUTHORIZING HUNTING ON SUNDAYS BY BOW AND ARROW

To authorize hunting on Sundays by bow and arrow provided such hunting is conducted on private property. 

Both are stuck in the legislative morass known as "Referred to" These two bills have been sent to the Joint Committee on Environment

We encourage you to let our legislators know there is support for these bills. This is a sensible goal, especially suited for hunters who don't necessarily get to hunt during the weekdays, applies ONLY to hunting on private property, and can be a useful wildlife management tool.  Find Your Connecticut Legislator

Current Bills - Storing firearms; "Protective Orders";

Be on target!
Don't be the target

Current Proposed Legislation
"Safe Storage Laws"
"Temporary Restraining Orders"

Voting is only part of the legislative process. You need to be in touch with your legislators,  let them know your opinions on subjects important to you, 

and know how to get your point across clearly and calmly.

If you do not know your state representatives you can find who they are

at the Find Your Connecticut Legislator.

OPPOSE ~ HB 6962 ~ "Safe Storage Law" (Official title - AN ACT CONCERNING FIREARM SAFETY) A legislative overreach seeking to criminalize gun owners for keeping their firearms accessible when in their homes.

Currently, if you don’t keep your firearms locked away from minor children, there are civil and criminal liabilities that apply to a minor accessing your unlocked firearm and causing harm. In other words, there has to actually be a victim in order for it to be a criminal.

This bill removes the word ‘minor’ from those statutes, making it a requirement that everyone’s firearms be locked up when not on their person. It also expands your criminal and civil liability for someone accessing your firearms against your will.

Even more disturbingly, the bill then goes on to change the burden of proof for a defendant during a risk warrant hearing. This changes the current ‘innocent until proven guilty’ system, which is already heavily perverted by the risk warrant law, and makes it clear that upon an accusation, you are guilty until proven innocent.

OPPOSE - Senate Bill 650 – (Official title - AN ACT CONCERNING TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDERS) A bill seeking to remove due process from the restraining order process
OPPOSE - House Bill 6848 - (Official title -AN ACT PROTECTING VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE) A bill seeking to remove due process from the restraining order process

These bills will wrongfully violate the fundamental rights of hundreds of people per year based only on hearsay. In 2014, 45% of all ex parte temporary restraining orders were found to be not valid after the hearing. They would require that a firearms owner surrender his por her firearms within 24 hours of issuance of a temporary restraining order, before any court hearing takes place.

Using the confusion of the difference between a Temporary Restraining Order [TRO] and a Restraining Order [RO] that many people have and trying to make it sound like it would be a ‘common sense’ idea for someone to lose their firearms during a Temporary Restraining Order.

The reality is that there is little that is similar about a TRO and an RO. A TRO is an ex parte order, meaning that only one side has presented anything to the court. In other words, the subject of the TRO has had no opportunity to be heard or represented. This clearly violates the concept and idea of Due Process, but further, it actually negatively impacts public safety as well.

NEVER ASSUME that if a politician is from a different political party or has spoken out in public that favors one side of an issue or another, that they will not listen to hear another point of view. That is their responsibility - to hear varied opinions - and you can hold them to hearing you out. But you need to plan strategically.

     • Be brief and to the point

     • Use your own words.
     • Mention how issue will affect your district or community or organization.
