What Is A Trip To The Ford Piquette Club?

To support our mission, donors gave over $1,000,000 this past year. We celebrated our first joint fundraising golf tournament with the Meals on Wheels programs of Chapel Hill/Carrboro and Durham in October 2014. This was a great opportunity to raise awareness in the Triangle for our three programs that collectively feed over 2,000 seniors every week day. An unfortunate blast of winter weather caused us to cancel our Fat Tuesday Gala, but we were able to turn the auction into a successful online event and we raised funds to purchase over 18,000 meals. Our Fat Tuesday Gala will return with even more exciting plans next year on February

On top of their excellent craftsmanship and numerous awards and certifications, above all, National Steel Car values its commitment to the Hamilton community.

For your new project, please develop a project team (citing names, e-mail addresses, and telephone numbers).

If there are any other fundraisers for National Convention they will be posted to the chapter facebook and put into the newspaper. Thank you for supporting the students of Surprise Valley and helping them go on a once in a lifetime trip!

He constructed 272 buildings on his property for local residents. Ford also helped save and reconstruct the historical Fort McAllister to preserve it for later generations. Henry Ford is familiarly recognized for creating the Ford automobiles. He formed the Edison Botanic Society along with Thomas Edison and Harvey Firestone to conduct lab experiments to transform agricultural products into materials that can be productively used in the auto industry. He renovated former rice fields into fields for iceberg lettuce and grew 365 varieties of soybean—technically, a soybean variety for everyday of the year! He tested the crops’ properties in hopes that rubber can be extracted from them. Henry Ford truly turned the desperate neighborhood into a flourishing town. The city of Ways Station was later renamed to Richmond Hill after the Fords’ estate.

Crafters from different places come and buy a booth from Princeton and the Beta Sigma Phi sorority. The money will then be donated back to our community. This year, our community is donating to Second Story, the Elks Toy Drive, and Flags of Freedom.IMG_3517[1].JPG

Horseheads Brewing donated a dollar for every pint or flight sold. Between raffles, pint, flight and jug sales, the event raised $577 for the Horseheads Animal Shelter.

The event was held at noon, just hours before a home meet for the Cougars. This allowed more people to attend, as family would be in town. There was an expected donation of $10 from participants, who could donate at the gate or via

The actual convertible in Louise Erdrich’s story “The Red Convertible” represents the relationship between two brothers. The story is set around two brothers, Lyman and Henry, who before Henry was drafted into the war were very close. They spent most of their time bonding around their new and exciting car but as their relationship and personalities change so does the condition of the car. The symbolism and characterization in “The Red Convertible” reveals how war can greatly effect people’s relationships. When Henry and Lyman first bought the convertible it was in great condition just like their relationship.

Even though it’s still in the stages of design, the young innovator and his father already launched a GoFundMe campaign to help fund the manufacturing fees to turn his life-saving concept into a reality.

"We raised a lot of money," Flowers said. "We got a lot of donations, a lot of water, pop, a lot of cleaning supplies and stuff like that. We got bleach. We raised over $2,000. I think we did okay, we did the best we could do."

I co-founded this small organization a few years ago, and I firmly believe it is a great asset to our community. With our initiative and volunteerism, we have raised over $5000 for local organizations. Our most notable donation thus far is a $1500 contribution to our local arena, which was recently condemned and converted into an outdoor rink. We took it upon ourselves to ensure that the Canadian pastime of hockey and skating could remain alive in our community. However, it is only by showing the influential qualities of a Schulich Leader that these donations were possible. Personally, I have organized and led many fundraiser events, one being an event where we helped our municipality to safely purge hazardous wastes. But, it is only after working hard in these events that I can fully enjoy the reward of shaking hands with a different organization. Our abilities to lead our community to a brighter future is recognized, and this is ultimately what a Schulich Leader embodies: the ability to exact

Brief description of my Eagle Project: My Eagle project was to re-due the decking for the handicap ramp at St. Elizabeth’s Catholic Church here in Acton. This involved ripping up the old wood decking and disposing of it accordingly. Next, we attached “sister-boards” to the frame of the deck. Then, I attached brand new composite decking. I chose this as my project because everyday someone needs to use the ramp and it was very unsafe at the time and desperately needed an update. I financed this project by asking for donations at Saturday and Sunday masses, holding a back to schools party fundraiser, and lastly receiving an anonymous donation.

Despite the wintry conditions, cold and very windy, each dealership was packed with potential customers browsing the lots and test driving new vehicles. Everyone gets a “rush” when in the market for new cars, maybe because we do it so infrequently! Even before dealing with any salespeople, Mike was eager about checking out the 2013 models, and what cool new features are now available. Even though Mike knew he wasn’t going to be making a purchase, he was excited to see what kind of strides Ford had made since the infamous government bailout of 2009.
