President's Report Hi Ladies! May was such an exciting month! For all of those who missed convention, you missed a great time. The luncheons were excellent and of course the Junior Night Festivities were fun. June was jammed packed with great (optional) events as well. Since we don’t meet until September, you might want to read all the events and happenings that our club will be involved in over the summer, and at least stop by. We had a great June meeting: Janet from MYM (Meld for Young Mothers) gave a small talk on her organization, and Mary Schroeder presented our Scholarship Winner. We also enjoyed our buffet ($10.00 per person) and our social chair’s program (fashion show of $15.00 outfits) Last, but not at all the least, please say a prayer for Sue Dees, as she has not been doing very well. Have a
Great Day!
Vice President's Report Hi everyone! Hope your summer is going well and you're able to find time to enjoy this fabulous
weather. Since we won't be meeting again until September, please use these few months to
catch up on much needed paperwork. There have been may activities that we've done as a
club but very few reports turned in. Since "reporting" will be here before we
know it, it's important to have everything in advance for organizational purposes. Judy
Huyvaert is collecting reports and has blank forms if you need them. Stay cool and dry (not a problem these past few weeks)! See you soon!

Hi Everyone,
Happy Summer! First thank you so much to all of you who took part in OUR SPECIAL SUE DAY! I hope everyone had a great time and with a group of fifteen of us we keep the restaurant alive that is for sure. The summer social will be held at Mary Wolski's House and I hope we will have a great attendance. We are trying something different doing it on a Saturday afternoon so hopefully we will have a great turn out. Also please remember to RSVP to either myself or Mary a week a head of time so plans can be made accordingly. She has a beautiful Jacuzzi for those who care to partake or just bring your swim suit and shorts to sit on the side. Please bring either a dessert or an appetizer to share. Anyone who has any fun games such as pictionary, scategories, etc also please feel free to bring them as they are always fun. Thank you to Sharon Fonte for handling the food arrangements for our June meeting the food was great as always. Is anyone interested in doing the same thing in September to kick off the fall? I only have one suggestion different as far as the time goes to have the food served at 7:00p so as to not make the meeting as long. Thank you to all of you who participated in the 15.00 fashion show. The clothing items will now be donated to Family Shelter. Thank you Jeanette for bringing an idea from another club to share with us. There are a lot of fall fairs in the are I am going to check into and see if perhaps we could do a lunch perhaps in Geneva or St Charles and then go check out the fairs which always have a lot of neat items. If anyone is interested in something like this please let me know and I will get more details.
Most of all I hope you each have a great summer and enjoy your children and grandchildren as I will do with mine!
With hugs,
Cheryl

Miss DuPage and Miss Western Suburbs Update
Laura Burke
How's $16,000 towards college tuition sound? Both of the girls, Valerie
Lynch (MDC) and Lauren Allen (MWS) competed for the title of Miss Illinois on 6/17-18.
Valerie impressed the judges and was awarded 1st runner up. Lauren impressed them even
more and is now Miss Illinois 2005! Their prize amounts will go a long way towards Val's
second year in law school and Lauren will use hers after she competes for Miss America as
she finishes up her senior year at nursing school. Thank you to everyone in this club that
supports this program! Without you, these girls might not have experienced this wonderful
year and who knows what will happen next year! This is proof positive that volunteering
can change someone's life. Thank you and let's wish Lauren the best of luck as she
competes in January 2006 at Miss America (more scholarship money just for showing up!).
