COMMUNITY Karen Sentz, 2007 Community Development Vice President

I challenge you to make your life a masterpiece. I challenge you to join the ranks of those people, who live what they teach, who walk their talk-Anthony Robbins Outstanding Teamwork-That was the name of the game at the Relay for Life. Due to the dedication of many members we were able to pass the torch and have someone on the track walking the entire time of the relay from Noon on Friday to Noon on Saturday. Christine Carbaugh did an excellent job setting everything up for us, keeping our spirits up and making sure all of the administrative duties were covered. A special thank you to Kim Leese and Kelly Myers who made spirit shirts for all of the walkers and to Kim Leese and Diana Rumsey who carried the bulk of the difficult through-the-night hours. Also, a thank you to all of the Jaycees who came out with kids or extended family or friends. It was great to catch up with you! Our President went above and beyond in finishing up the final hour for us even though his wisdom teeth were taken out just 48 hours prior. Thank you Mr. President. It was a great show of teamwork which is what the Jaycees is all about! The Backpack for Kids project is underway--Thanks to the help of Liz Boyer, WalMart and the Hanover Red Cross. Last year we were able to provide 69 backpacks filled with school supplies to kids to get a fresh start on the new school year. This year let’s beat that number! I still need a chairperson for this super feel good project. I also need a chairperson for the Pass, Punt and Kick (football skills) Please let me know if you can help in any way with these worthwhile projects. Melanie Adams is preparing literature for the schools for our annual JAYSJaycees Against Youth Smoking program. The project is set to kick off with the start of the 2007-2008 school year. Nick Cracium held the first of many planning meetings for the annual Halloween Parade. We are still in need of sub-chairs. If you have questions for Nick, he can be reached at 637-0923.

Please call or email me with any questions or suggestions. 633-5198 or [email protected].
