UIS Continues Hurricane Katrina Relief EffortsAt our last CR meeting, member
David Clary discussed this morning's UIS Run/Walk for Hurricane Katrina Relief [info at
TwoSouth.com]. Following this event today, there is going to be a
Carnival on the Quad, and all proceeds and donations will go to assist the disaster victims.
Tomorrow afternoon [Sunday, Oct. 9th] at 2:00 PM, there is going to be a Volleyball Game at the UIS Gym, with
Faculty & Staff members vs. the students of the
Blue Crew. CR member
Brad Ward has organized this event, and at least one of the other Blue Crew players,
Dale Vick, is also a member of our organization. (Dale is the same person who was kind enough to design the 9/11 "Never Forget" lapel stickers for our "11 Day Project" of remberance.)
Several of our CR members are currently in Louisiana (others were there recently), to assist first-hand in the relief and recovery efforts. The UIS College Republicans is committed to helping those in need through service and volunteerism in our communities, and nationwide as well.
Thanks to David, Brad, Dale, and the other UIS students and administrators who are contributing to these efforts.
