SHANNON DIAZ…of Al-Anon/Alon-teen shared with us some of the personal issues she was able to overcome and how she was able to achieve growth and confidence through the 12 steps of Al-Anon.  The core belief being individuals must “help themselves”. But there is a spiritual (higher power) that plays a large part in our lives.  Thank you Shannon.

 “The Alchemist Pot”
“Teachers – Apples – R & R”
June 8, 2012 Vol. 1 No. 31

FOR A MAJORITY…of us when we combine the words teacher and apple it means something for the teacher to eat. Well now a days when you say teacher and “Apple” it has to do with a whole new modern way for teachers to guide and stimulate our children and grandchildren. With the use of computers students are now involved in ROBOTICS, WIND TURBINES and other amazing and interesting subjects and studies. This information was presented to us by our guest speaker, Ron Harbaugh, Communications Director of U.S. D. 501, Topeka School district. It ain’t just R & R anymore, people!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY…Children’s Discovery Center. Jamie Crispin from the Discovery Center will be our guest speaker this week. I am sure she will share with us all of the activities going on with this most popular attraction in Topeka.

Margie Denton won the ticket pot split and announced that she and Leland were celebrating their fifteen anniversary. Badge number 55 belongs to Mark Scheve but he was not in attendance. Mike Akulow Jr. has a new candy bar because his name was called out from the attendance list.
