Our Relay for Life Team, well
organized by Ilknur Erbas-White, with the help of her friend, Gayla Jensen, had
almost 50 people who walked the track without interruption for the 24 hours.
Volunteers came from MVAC, the Irvine Valley College, the Young Engineers Club
and the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society. Together they really kept the track busy.
Dave Breazeale and Tom Riehl fired up the grill (during our record high temps)
for burgers and breakfasts. Barb Breazeale, David Allen, Del Holt and Mary Kay
Lenhard were among many of our members who deserve very special recognition.

Our Youth Group made the very colorful baton for our team members and we thank
them all, especially Tim Littman and Ryan Choye who walked/ran and stayed
for many hours. Thank you to all of the members, family and friends who helped
our team contribute to cancer research .

Continuing Street Faire
Planning…
Craft and food vendors, entertainment personnel and volunteers are all signed up
and ready for the busy and fun 4th of July Street Faire. Are you included ? Our
biggest effort of the year should have the majority of active and inactive
members working shifts in the various venues. This year we are adding “Shade
Spots”, covered areas of cool along the midway for the rest and comfort of all
the participants. Call the office if you have family and friends who will be in
town and are able to volunteer in one of the MVAC’s greatest events! Do refer to
our website, mvactivities.com
where you can send interested volunteer members and guests who need more
information or event forms to submit.

A big Thank You goes out to Tom Riehl, our WebMaster (and V.P.) who has done an
amazing job in building the site so that everyone can be informed of our
activities. This week he managed to get our website linked from the City of
Mission Viejo’s home page.
Also, Tom arranged with KSBR Jazz Radio to broadcast LIVE from the Faire between
12:00 and 6:00 pm. What a nice addition that is for our exposure in the
surrounding communities. Great efforts, Tom!

Wendy Scribner has volunteered to bring treats to our July meeting. Remember,
there is no meeting scheduled for August as the membership deserves a good rest
after our very busy and successful Spring/Summer Season.
