and Founder, Melanie Kirk-Stauffer who was assisted by several Jr. dance
Ensemble members who helped to complete the presentation.

Evidence of our success, focus on goals, using our creativity-staying in a solution mode. Our 2013 Performance Line-up for Arts Are Education and community outreach performances, formal concerts and the next New York education trip were presented. Fundraising, marketing, facility improvement and service goals, as well as the importance of taking time to congratulate ourselves for a job well done even as we set more goals and look to the future.

The upcoming "Goals & Dreams" speaking competition, where students have the opportunity to compete for dance tuition scholarships and the search for help with an on-line auction, were also discussed. Also talked about were updated membership manuals, new company dancewear, and how important it is for each of us to “show up and do community service with a good heart.”

LOL Randy..there are three businesses listed under `Optometry' (I had trouble with the font/style onRead More the red background of the categories). I am always amazed at the number of businesses I did not know about..I chuckled at the `puffing' on pages 5-8 - no need to go any further with re-branding..

You are lucky to have a man of Elmer's quality as part of your life! He is a true officer andRead More gentleman, who served his county by performing arduous tours of duty, several in a combat role. However, if I were to characterize Elmer with one word it would be "unselfish." Like you, I am lucky to have known Elmer and able to call him a friend. Howard

What a nice Father's Day wish to Elmer from his daughter. He and Linda are lucky parents.

Thank you Howard and Lucile :-)

I heard it, Patty. He isn't the only one to do so, either. We need to be on a crusade to help thoseRead More national media types get the actual host city correct.

On TV yesterday a "man on the street" said the US Open would be good for SEATTLE andRead More Tacoma!!! Yes, our work is cut out for us getting people to say University Place, even "near Tacoma" would be okay. Over a year ago, I wrote to a magazine requesting they use the correct city for Chambers Bay because they said it was in Tacoma. Every time we hear someone in the media say "those other cities' names", we must write/text/email them and set them straight. They probably don't know about UP.

Thanks for sharing, Laurie! Can you share with Puyallup Patch, too? Thanks so much!

End of May? Do you mean end of June?
Laurie Miller June 5, 2013 at 10:46 am
Yes, end of June. Thanks so much for pointing that out. Christie.

<<another mom>> How would I go about finding out if the other driver was issued aRead More citation/ticket? His insurance company is pretty adamant about closing the deal. I'm under the assumption HIS insurance company would have those details?
another mom May 30, 2013 at 06:12 pm
Call UP police, ask. That's when we found out. I wouldn't be too eager to close, either. Even thoughRead More our car was totaled, insurance paid us only 1/2 the replacement value (we'd found an identical car). The fact that the deputy didn't cite the other driver (even though there were witnesses that stated that person was breaking the law and entirely responsible) did affect our claim, and we're still suffering as a result. Good luck.
Christie Anderson May 30, 2013 at 10:11 pm
Cedar....Never close straight away with the insurance company. I figure if they are anxious to closeRead More their client was cited, lol.
