The Day's Program
Dan Olswang and Rachel Chavez from Highland Park Elite Soccer Club shared with the Club life as soccer families. The program is three years old and is an 501c3 organization.  The "Goal" is 
making competitive soccer available to local lower income players, typically ages 8-14.  The soccer association has given out $20,000 in scholarships.
 
A very special thank you to Skip Jacobs, Martha Gray, and Cynthia Plouché for their help with this week's bulletin.
