SPRING FLING SPRINT:

And it rained, and it rained, and it rained. The Civitan spirit was not dampened, nor were the mighty spirits of those who participated in the 5K race. Many thanks to all of you who gave up the dry warmth of your homes to help with this fun event.

A THOUGHT TO CARRY WITH YOU:

You will find, as you look back upon your life, that the moments when you really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.

Henry Drummond
