Membership Appreciation Party

Saturday, June 27th, 1:00 pm

Our membership appreciation party will be held at Manuel's Tavern on Saturday, June 27th from 1-4 pm. As always, this event will be free to any members from the 2008-2009 member year or those who have already paid their dues for 2009-2010, guests can attend for a fee of $10. Like most of our events, children are welcome since the room will be non-smoking.

Speaking this year will be our friend, Wally Richardson. As you probably remember, Wally was the starting quarterback for PSU in 1995 and 1996. After several years in the NFL, AFL, and XFL he worked as an academic counselor at Penn State and is now Associate Director of Academic Services for the University of Georgia.

New this year, we are asking you to register in advance. We're going to be offering a little better food than the typical wings, pizza, and fries so we need to have an accurate head count. For lunch you will have your choice of three buffet dinners: herb roasted chicken breast, sliced roast beef with mushroom gravy, and vegetarian lasagna; side dishes include green beans and roasted garlic mashed potatoes. Each attendee will receive three drink tickets good for 1 draft or bottle beer (up to a $5 value) or house wine. Pitchers of domestic beer will cost 4 tickets.

The community service committee is announcing the first of several upcoming community service projects. Come catch up with your friends and do something good for the community! We will be helping the staff of the Atlanta Hospital Hospitality House, which provides free lodging for out-of-town family members visiting or caring for loved ones who are undergoing treatment in Atlanta area hospitals. They run on donations and volunteer power and are excited about working with our group! There will be a variety of tasks available, such as cleaning the bedrooms, helping out in the kitchen, and doing yard work. Children are welcome!

The Atlanta Hospital Hospitality House is located at 1815 Ponce de Leon Ave. in the Frazer Center (Corner of Ponce de Leon & South Ponce de Leon). There is plenty of parking. For more information, you can visit their website: http://www.atlhhh.org. If you plan to attend, please RSVP to Jennifer Evanuik at service@psuatlanta.com by June 30. We hope to see you there!

Diamonds Over Georgia 2010

We are pleased to announce the new co-chairs for Diamonds 2010 – Devika Rao and Nikelle Hamada. They were an integral part of the success in past years and we are very lucky to have them serve as co-chairs. They are already starting to work on planning the event, including the location it will be held, the catering/menu, finding donors for auction/raffle items, and ways to market the event. To continue our great success, we really need your help. If you are interested in serving on the committee, or would like information on becoming a sponsor or donor for next year's event, please email diamondchair@psuatlanta.com.
