Last week Diane came to talk to us about Alzheimer's Association Greater New Jersey Chapter and their walk happening on Saturday, October 20th in Bradley Beach.

Did you know every 65 SECONDS someone in the US develops Alzheimer? We all know someone that has or has had this awful disease. As a matter of fact, Alzheimer's disease is the 6th leading cause of death in the United States.

So, save the date and walk to support this great cause. To learn more visit:www.alz.org/walk

This past Tuesday it was a great honor to have Mayor Thomas F. Kelaher visit our club and talk to us about the great plans Toms River Township, New Jersey has for the redevelopment of Water Street area. They are in the beginning stages still... permits and funding are still being worked on. This project will surely take some time but the wait will be worth it!

Thanks, Mayor Kelaher for your visit and information!

While at RYLA, Rachel got to meet other young leaders around the world, build communication and problem-solving skills, made long lasting friendships, and much more.
