The second program is entitled "Kids Hope", which is funded by State of Ohio grants, and provides mentoring to "at risk" kids in grades four through six, in a church-school partnership with Christian Life Center. President Rick and Pass/Shoot/Dribble chairperson Bill Davidson also thanked Tony for his assistance with the Pass/Shoot/Dribble contest, and in helping promote the event to the students.
| • Two other guests attended the meeting: Adrian Leonard and his daughter Antoinette. Antoinette was one of the winners in the club level Essay Contest last year, and this year is a finalist in the "Miss Jr. Teen Pageant" in April. She is a sophomore honors student at Northridge, with a 4.2 GPA, and plans to study Interior Design and Architecture in college. Adrian is a local business owner of "Crystal Cleans Etc.". Congratulations, and good luck to Antoinette. |
Dick Loges, long time member of Northridge Optimist Club passed away at age 95 on March 15 in Panama City, Florida, where he had resided for the past several years. Although it has been quite a few years since he was a member of our club, he always came back to town each year to play in and support our golf outing. |
Condolences to the Loges family.
