SUMMER YOUTH INTERNS
The Education Cluster would like to take this opportunity to introduce the Summer Youth Interns. Jessica Wallace and Lydia Jahner are the interns for this summer and they will be planning children and youth activities throughout the summer months. Jessica is a junior at Wartburg College in Waverly, Iowa where she is majoring in Elementary Education with an emphasis in reading and early childhood education. Lydia is a junior at Central College in Pella, Iowa where she is majoring in Russian and Political Science. Both young women have a strong background in leadership and child development activities.

Knoxville wanted to out do last years $12,000 total during their Coaches vs. Cancer event Saturday night. Mission accomplished as Knoxville stepped up and helped raise over $24,000 for the American Cancer Society. According to Church member Angie Utiermarkt, the total will likely go higher when they figure in admission and concession stand money. Over 1,500 people came out to the event that started with alumni basketball games, and silent auction during the basketball games. Knoxville lost both games to Carlisle.

Jim and Angie would like to thank everyone for the support and donations!

Stevenson was also named the International Association of Conference Center Administrators Scholar Athlete of the Week. In her first semester DMACC she earned a three-point-three/three grade point average majoring in Agriculture Administration.
