We had the pleasure of hearing from four RYLA participants and how much they learned and about their favorite activities throughout the weekend. Our club provided 10 scholarships @ $375 each. Pictured are: Clara Minet, Gracie Littleton, Lily Gray,
and Ellie Monroe.
John Baxter presented Russ Martin, the Simi Valley High School Auto Shop teacher, with an IOU for $500 from our Vocational Committee to help continue the improvements at the shop at the school. Russ is credited with bringing back this class to the school, through grants and donations, after more than 8 years of not being a part of the classes offered to students.
Jim Visage then raised his hand and offered to donate $1000 more to the program at the school!
