CLUB CONCERNS:

PRESIDENT JOHN asked us to keep the following in our thoughts and prayers: BOB BROCK, ROY WHISTLER, RAY KAVANAUGH and the family and friends of BUD BAUGH who passed away last Friday.

THANK YOU:

PRESIDENT JOHN'S "Thank you for caring a whole awful lot" plaque went to FRITZ COHEN for work with Community Projects and past Board participation. Congratulations!

PROGRAM:

JIM KLUSMAN helped us celebrate Service by thanking those who were involved with the Gus Macker Tournament. Sponsors, committee chairs, volunteers from our club, Rotaract, Purdue Habitat Chapter and Habitat received a big THANK YOU. Recipients of last year's Tournament were the CAPE project playground and a Habitat House. This year there will be another Habitat House and the Back Pack Program. The owner of the new Habitat Home expressed her appreciation on behalf of her family. The House Blessing will be April 5th. The Tournament is a huge project needing all of us to make it a success. John Basham said it best when he told us he tells students to serve others to make the world a better place. That sounds a lot like "Service Above Self"!
