In honor of the Memorial Day holiday, the residents of Richland Manor enjoyed a week’s worth of festivities and an evening full patriotism in late May. This “USO Dinner” was planned specially for the campus residents and featured a menu that contained buffet cuisine similar to what one could find in an Army canteen.
The chef-prepared menu included appetizers and assorted entrées served buffet-style.
The week leading up to the dinner featured special programming, activities and trivia that tied in to the USO theme, including: united we stand bingo, heroes trivia, and a patriotic baking class.
Kyle Rex is an Ohio Northern University senior currently interning at Community Health Professionals. The fit is a good one for this pharmacy business major from Napoleon, Ohio. His hybrid major combines primarily courses in business with pharmacy science classes. For Rex his concentration is marketing.
Working 20 hours a week at CHP over the course of this summer, Rex is starting out his internship with a focus on marketing and fundraising, specifically for the CHP hospice benefit fund. The fund assists those with limited means to have access to hospice services.
The Hardin Co Hootenannies 4-H Club wanted a way to "give back" to Ag Credit in Kenton for allowing them to use their meeting room for their first meetings of the year.
Ranae Sherman, Branch Manager, informed the group that Ag Credit was wanting to redo their landscaping around the building. So the club decided to help by getting a tree and planting it for them in their new landscape.
A Baby Blue Blue Spruce was chosen and the club members dug the hole and set the tree on the west corner of the building. They wish to say thank you with a gift that will hopefully grow for many years to come.
