Dear Charlie:

 

The group would like to visit with you in early August 2011. Bosch Retirees are very interested in the company's current situation due to the banner year Bosch had in the automotive OEM business.

 

Our Agenda/Topics for Discussion

1-Current Business Environment/Situation for Bosch North America and Bosch World-Wide.

2- According to the Zuender, RB had one of the best years of the automotive business units in North America.

3-Due to the troubles in the economy, high inflation rate and increases in Medicare premiums, Bosch retirees need an increase in their pension more than ever. What can Bosch do for their Retirees?

4-Would it be possible for the company to once again support the Retiree's Christmas, schedule for 12/1/2011 luncheons in Chicago and Charleston?

 

Thank you,

Klaus D. Kobelentz

Our 2011 ARBORNA Holiday Party in Broadview.

 

On December 1st 2011, ARBORNA President Klaus Kobelentz welcomed the 52 Bosch retirees and guests to Sawa’s Old Warsaw in Broadview. The food for the holiday party was buffet-style, plentiful and good with no reason for anyone to leave hungry! Bosch LLC granted a monetary contribution for the event which partially offset the cost for attendees. Poinsettia table decorations were sponsored by ARBORNA and they were raffled off at the conclusion of the party.

Klaus reported that no ABORNA/Bosch meeting was held this year and thus, no new information on a COLA pension adjustment. Luke Baer gave a short overview of BMSN activities. BMSN also provided 2012 Bosch racing calendars and Bosch Zuenders for everybody. No change to the ABORNA officer staff for the year.

Everyone seemed to have a good time and it was nice to see a large turnout for that “once a year party”. 

Respectfully submitted,

Al Krenz

Secretary
