BONNIE AUGENSTEIN IS GREAT!!!!


Recently, the Salvation Army held their “Volunteer Thank You Breakfast” and Bonnie Augenstein was surprised when she received a large crystal plaque engraved as their “Volunteer of the Year Award”. The officer presenting the award explained that Bonnie works weekly at whatever assignment they give her – and without ever complaining. One example of a huge task she was asked to handle was arranging and organizing the Thanksgiving Day dinner. This dinner served over 22,000 people and Bonnie worked for weeks, sometimes working 50 hours in one week to accomplish this task. Bonnie also presented the Salvation Army with a $250 “AT&T Cares Grant” at the Volunteer Breakfast. Bonnie, you personify our Club’s commitment to helping in our community! Thank You Bonnie!

I Love to Brag


I think this small club does a wonderful job and I like to brag about it and let our members know what others are doing in their volunteer efforts. Enclosed is a list of our Club’s Projects. This small club does a lot of good for a lot of organizations. Thank you so much, and keep up the GREAT work! Virginia Clark

HEART PILLOWS NEVER DIE


At a recent Florida Hospital “Funshop” at Wekiva Homeowners Association, a resident of Wekiva stopped in to do some business with the association. Mr. Art Madden noticed our members making heart pillows and mentioned he had one of our pillows. He told us he had open heart surgery in 1993 and our pillow was just a wonderful thing and he still used it. He went home and brought it back to show us how really “tired” this pillow had become. We offered to exchange the pillow for a new one but he said he would love to have a new one, but would never part with his original. He also asked if we would please accept a donation to help our club keep up this good work, and he gave our Treasurer a very generous donation. Heart Pillows Never Die – They Just Keep on Spreading Our Good Name!!!!

I Believe...


That we don't have to change friends if We understand that friends change.

Email from the Troops


Please see the email below we received regarding the Christmas Boxes we sent to the Troops. Thank you. Gloria Pazel * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To the Pioneers, Please accept our gratitude, from US Army Corps of Engineers and myself for the wonderful Christmas Box O' Goodies. The goodies were of exceptional quality and shared them with as many soldiers and civilian counter parts as we could. Of course, we kept the choicest items of booty... that's how it goes. Still, and most importantly, we appreciate your valuable time; not to only think of us here, but to put together a gift that allows us to share Christmas with you. On behalf of the US Air Force and US Army Corps of Engineers Thank you for adding some merriment to our Christmas. SSgt Barnes T, USAF
