June Program
Summer Picnic and Scholarship Awards
Chapter members and their families are cordially invited to our annual “Beginning of Summer” picnic. Yes folks, it is finally here!! The picnic, also our June meeting, is when we take the occasion to present our chapter scholarships and meet the recipients and their families in attendance. The scholarship recipients represent the best and brightest of future Michiganders and Americans. This occasion also allows for our chapter to show our worth as an organization, and get our members fired up to continue the generosity that we are so blessed as a group to have. We cannot fully measure the importance of assisting young motivated Americans, but we do know it is one of the most important things our organization can do to show support for the great folks in our communities.
Please come and enjoy a relaxed (casual) evening, terrific park setting, great barbecue picnic food, complimentary beverages, great company and warm early summer weather (never guaranteed!).
