2000 EDUCATION
COMMITTEE PROJECTS
Jimmie Ellis,
Education
Throughout the year 2000, the Education Committee members have been active
on many fronts. Over the winter and spring months, the group charged with
making classroom purchases in specified schools (Kindergarten & Primary
schools at Boca de Tomatlan, 12 de Octubre, El Progresso, Jollas de Pedregal,
Magisterio & Las Brisas) worked hand-in-hand with the local school
Directors and teachers under the direction of Brian & Dawn Blevings.
We wish to express our heartfelt appreciation to them and to their team
- Sheri Alter, Dick & Cheryl Dobbeck, Judy Galeana, Al & Yvonne
Ward and to former Club member Myra Fumerton who has returned to her hometown
of Tijuana. In total, the group invested some 50,000 pesos in classrooms
needs.

BAZAAR 2000
The time has arrived to give special tribute
to one of the consistently hardworking and devoted members of the team
that coordinates our annual Bazaar namely, - “Silent Auctioneer”
MARISE ROLNICK.
For the past several years she has contributed
hours of time and never ending energy to help steer and coordinate with
Marcy Kengott, the collection of items for the Bazaar Boutique. However,
for the 1999 and 2000 Bazaar she created the new Auction department, and
through her growing rapport with businesses in the city collected items
that generated a substantial revenue to the success of this and last years
events.
Thank you again, Marise; we hope you
will continue to bring your expertise and generosity of time and ideas
to the benefit of the Club’s charities. |
Here we are at the start of another season. With this our first newsletter
of the season, I am hoping that this finds you all in good health and looking
forward to returning to beautiful Puerto Vallarta, if you are not already
here. Summer is not a quiet season for the Club as you will see by another
article herein. The work goes on, the checks are still written for our
on-going programs. I want to personally thank these people here and now
that make this happen, THANK YOU ALL.
