Laura
Beilke encouraged everyone to contribute a part of
their tax refund to the Sertoma Annual Fund. She
also encouraged you to get a tax refund for next
year the same way. We automatically give $25 per
person which makes us a one hundred percent
club. The National program has given away $189,000
the past year to support Sertoma's Mission of
Hearing and Health. The Fund helped our club last
year starting the Safe Ears because we applied for
their matching grant program.. Forty different
hearing impaired students receive $1,000
scholarships. Forty other students receive $1,000
scholarships if they are working toward a degree in
the fields related to hearing impairments. Laura
encouraged us to help educate the community to apply
for grants from this fund. The fourth branch that
benefits from this money is the National
Adopt-An-Agency-ProgramThe Fellow Award is given to
those who donate $100 especially at Convention
time. Karen Munsterteiger remarked that she
appreciates Sertoma giving back to the community.
Chuck Brenny is also a fellow. "I hope that you
realize that those grants are really appreciated by
the parents of college age children. " Bob Ehrich
received his pin. Mary spoke about how important
the hearing aide program is for those who have had
to deal with a hearing impaired child. Rory Cort
and Karen Owen were also acknowledged. Our club
deserves recognition for its continued support of
the Annual Fund. Laura encouraged us all to visit
Camp Sertoma to really understand the need. Pooch
stepped up and challenged the Dog Pound to match his
contribution. Steve Augustinack also contributed at
the meeting. Laura will take your contribution and
publicize it at the Regional Convention which is
coming up soon. 
Easter

specials are over at Cub Foods. Remember to patronize
our local Cub Foods. This great team has agreed once
again to support the Sertoma Mariucci Fiesta which is
coming up on June 19th--save that date on your calendar.
