Improved archives page now available. Click the left-side ARCHIVES button as normal. NOTE: The September 2023 eBridge will be out approx. the third week of September due to illness. Tips for readers of the eBridge   BACKGROUND eBridge delivery may be prevented by spam filters, especially in your mail provider's incoming mail server and in the mail app on your computer if you use one. You can access your mail provider's mail server by using the webmail interface they supply, such as mail.google.com, mail.aol.com, icloud.com/mail, or webmail.cox.net. You can also optionally access it by using a mail app on your computer, which may not be from your mail provider; for example, you might have a Cox, Gmail or Yahoo mail account, but use Outlook, Windows Mail, or Apple Mail as your mail app. Each has its own spam filtering, so you need to go to each to look for your eBridge in the spam/junk folder, and to prevent your eBridge from being blocked. WHAT TO DO If your eBridge does not arrive by mid-month, and there is no notice of delay on the website, look in the spam/junk and trash folders both in your mail provider's webmail, and in your mail app if you use one. If you find it, mark it as not spam and/or move it to the inbox to "train" the spam filter to allow messages from this address. If your mail can be sorted into tabs or folders such as Outlook's "focused" "other" and "clutter," look in these too. If you do not find it, try webmail on a different computing device, such as desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone, and/or try a different browser. To reduce the chances of an eBridge being blocked by your mail provider's spam filter on their mail server, do the following: (1) Go to webmail and put emadmin@hrcaz.org in your mail account's contacts and allow list, AKA safe or trusted senders list or white list. (2) Check it is not on your blocked senders list. (3) Ensure your mail account is not set to delete suspected spam without telling you. (4)Ensure there is a long delay before trash or spam folders are emptied so you have time to find a missing eBridge. AOL fixes these at 7 and 30 days respectively, but 30 days for both is better for finding missing emails, and some mail systems let the user choose. Then, if you use a mail app, repeat all four steps in it too. Ample advice is available, such as whitelist.guide, which has instructions for most mail providers. (Scroll to find your provider's icon; don't use the search.) finally, if you have a firewall such as microsoft/Windows Defender, or anti-virus software such as Mcafee or Norton, ensure it is not set up so it could block email you want to receive. If you still don't get your eBridge, or if you don't understand these tips, please ask hotline@hrcaz.org. for help.

The Honeywell Retiree Social Club of Arizona (HRSC) extends a warm welcome to all Honeywell retirees who worked for Honeywell in the state of Arizona. This includes retirees from organizations that merged with Honeywell or were at one point part of Honeywell; for example, see the logos in the header above. Our purpose is to help you maintain contact with your retired Honeywell associates and to provide a variety of information and activities of interest.

To do this, HRSC provides many social activities so that friendships can be renewed and maintained on a regular basis. These include picnics, luncheons, horse race meetings, golf outings, tours, cruises, trips, museum visits, and lecture/discussion meetings on a variety of subjects.

Many people have fond memories of interaction with their associates and loss of contact with them is one of the drawbacks of retirement. We encourage all retirees to participate in these activities to renew, maintain and expand contact with people they have come to know well over the years and to form new friendships with others in the Honeywell family.

HRSC publishes a newsletter, The Bridge, 9 times a year, which is distributed to members in electronic form, and in paper form for members unable to receive email. Membership costs $5 per year, and the membership year ends on April 30. To join, click the "Membership Application/Renewal/Change" button at the left side of this page, and pay by credit or debit card.  (You will also be offered an option to pay by check.) Please consider paying for multiple years to save time and money for yourself and HRSC.  Honeywellers who leave Arizona after retirement are welcome to join or continue membership and receive The Bridge.

The club is a social network of Honeywell retirees and as such does not deal with pension, health care or other benefits. Please direct these questions to the Honeywell Retirement Service Center at 1 800 526 0744 or honeywell.com/retiree.

HRSC is a social organization in Arizona for Honeywell International, Inc. retirees. This organization will be open without regard to prior class of employment, race, creed, sex or geographical residence.

HRSC will provide program activities, programs (such as Fix-It Guys) and projects of interest to retirees and spouses. It will facilitate effective communications between members, other Honeywell retiree clubs and Honeywell International, Inc.  It will provide opportunities to renew acquaintances and promote fellowship among retirees, and will assist retirees in maintaining and enhancing the image of Honeywell International, Inc., in the eyes of the public.
