The President's Corner

Dear Friends,

       We are Penn State!  What a terrific football season we had this past year. Isn’t it great to look forward to another winning football season in 2007?  I have heard some reports about our Nittany Lions being a pre-season nationally ranked team.  Is this the season for another national championship?  While we all know that Penn State represents so much more than a successful athletic programs, it is fun to cheer the Blue and White on to victory in the fall.

       Our Greater Cleveland Chapter is gearing up for our calendar of events for the 2007-2008 year.  We look forward to you joining in on the fun.  This newsletter includes information about activities that are planned for the upcoming months.

      We need your help!

      We need your participation at our activities.  No one has a schedule or interests that make it possible to participate in all activities, but frankly we want to see you at as many activities as possible.          

      We could use your assistance in planning upcoming activities and helping make our chapter more successful and fun.  Please contact me or another officer if you are interested in joining the fun.

      We look forward to your participation as a member of our local chapter.  Please join by paying the small annual dues that we are soliciting as part of this newsletter.  Keep in mind that although many of us have paid our dues to be a member of the Penn State Alumni Association, that payment does NOT cover the cost of membership in our chapter in the Greater Cleveland area. You need to pay your chapter dues to stay on the Greater Cleveland chapter mailing list for the July, 2007 through June, 2008 period. 

     Finally, we encourage you to make a small tax-deductible contribution to the Chapter Scholarship Fund.

     We want your suggestions and comments on how to meet your needs and our chapter objectives to promote and enhance the stature of Penn State and higher education by any means open to us. 

Join us now for some fun and to support our alma mater!  We hope to see you soon! 

For the Glory,

Dave Repko ‘73
