TRIO Chapter Activity Report
Greater Cleveland Chapter - January 2007
On October
26, we had representatives from Diplomat Specialty Pharmacy talk to
about 20 members regarding medication side effects and preventative
care. Questions and concerns were discussed in an open forum.
We held
our annual Donor Sabbath on Saturday, November 11 at the Old Stone Church.
We had approximately 35 people attend. Thanks to Dorene Kray and
Jeanine Carroll for all of their hard work.
Our annual
After Holiday Party was held on Sunday, January 21 and again we had
about 35 participants. Everyone enjoyed a nice home-style meal at
Sterle’s Slovenian Country House. It was a nice chance for
everyone to catch up with old friends. During the party, we
presented a certificate to Brent Axthelm’s parents (he was away at
college). He is a recipient of a TRIO Scholarship for this
year. Brent’s parents gave us an update on his activities and
scholastic achievements at school. Thank you to all who joined us
and to Mike Wojtowicz for organizing the event.
Once
again, we sold Entertainment books for a fundraiser and did quite
well. Thanks to Cathy Grenig for all of her hard work and
organization.
Our plans
for 2007 include at least one educational seminar, our annual Night at
the Races, and an Annual Meeting in the summer. We hope to also
have other “Dines Out” events with speakers throughout the year.
A call for
nominations has been sent out for Board of Directors for a May election.
