psychology, a MA in Mental Health Counseling and a
MA in Marriage and Family Therapy. She made a
presentation on "Community Mental Health
Trends" along with what she does in her profession. As a counselor, she will
go to the patient’s home which alleviates a lot of stress on the family.

Students of the Month:
Paraprosdokians
(Winston Churchill loved them) are figures of speech in which the latter part of a
sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected; frequently humorous. Enjoy!
Where there’s a will, I want to be in it.
You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage
by taking away people’s initiative and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them,
what they could and should do for themselves.
Abraham Lincoln
Happy Events: Joe Minarik’s H/E was that he took
his dog to the vet this past week and it only cost him
$400. That was much better than Ken Bray who had to
pay $600 last week for his cat. Ken Bray’s H/E was that
he is going on vacation next week and will not be at the
meeting. Dick Breske’s H/E was that he went fishing 60
miles out in the gulf with Dave Sideri and they had a
great catch. It was a long and bumpy boat ride, but they
did well. Jerry Wennlund’s H/E was for “How about
those Rays”. Kevin Krauss paid $3. 1st he announced
that our club foundation received $4000 from his friend
Theresa for a matching grant on our Bowl-A-Thon. Second he wanted to thank Joe Minarik for fixing the slicer at
Seminole Lanes. Last he and Mary Ann spent last Saturday with Cory at UCF for parent’s weekend. George
Carter’s H/E was that he doesn’t have any pets. Phil
Englands H/E was for the Rays and that the Lightning
seasons start. Alex Courtney’s happy dollar was that he
was Citizen of the Month at school. Don Vauiso paid a
Happy $20 because he and Dale received word that they
had become Alex’s official foster parents. Dave Sideri

Red Sox. Tami Scheele was happy to be back from her
vacation. Yvonne Fay paid $2 for the Rays doing so well
and that her son has a job there. Kenny Krauss paid a
happy dollar for the speaker attending this meeting. Tom
Stewart’s H/E, “You don’t need to bother going to any
more of the USF Bull’s games as they are horrendous!”
Jerry Wennlund’s Fordham Rams are a good football
team, they are 4-0 - Tom said “the Rams??? They could
even beat USF!” Joe Minarik paid another Happy $1 for
everyone who showed up at the Special Olympics. Over
650 Special Olympians & Volunteers were fed. Thank
You for all those who participated. A Special Get Well
