From the Desk of Executive Director Paul Steffens:First, let me express my personal appreciation to Peter Opsal for his sup-port over the past two years. As the Chair of the SDASYMCA Board of Management, Peter provided solid management that enabled this organi-zation to reach new heights and set records in assisting military families.His energy, imagination and can-do attitude motivated everyone to think out of the box. While he passed the Chairs responsibilities to our new Chair, we are thankful that Peter remains on the board with the same pas-sion he had as the Chair. Let me also welcome our new Chair, KathieZortman, who brings equal passion for supporting military families to theposition. I welcome the opportunity to work with Kathie to continue seek-ing innovative avenues that lead to imaginative programs to support ourmen and women in uniform and their families. Welcome Aboard MadamChair!>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>I also want to welcome our new Board of Management members and ournew Civilian Advisory Committee members. We are eager for the new ideas you bring to our operation and we welcome your hands-on partici-pation.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
With our annual Father & Daughter Dance taking place on 19 February, I want to note the personal involvement of a very special individual, Irene
Schwall, who personally got the word out to the community to donate ball gowns for young ladies to wear to the dance and wow their dads.Thanks to Irenes efforts, over 200 ball gowns were donated and the
young ladies had fun shopping for just the right gown.
