Gala banquet
19, in the Mid Ocean Amphitheatre, Southampton Princess.
The keynote speaker will be Rev. Floyd Flake, Pastor of the Allen African Methodist Episcopal Church in Queens, New York.
He is one of the most prominent political, community and religious leaders in the Northeastern United States.
As a member of Congress, he was known as an `insider' at both the White House and New York's City Hall. But last year Rev. Flake made the decision to dedicate all his energies to church and community activities.
According to an article in The New York Times, Rev. Flake's church has an annual budget of $25 million and employs 800 people.
Tickets for the banquet, which are $75 per person, are available from all branch chairmen and the Central office 295-0729.
