Members of the Lewisville Noon Rotary (and several spouses) joined in the celebration on Saturday night by serving dinner at The Lewisville High School Circle of Friends Grand Ball. The annual prom for special needs students ais always a fun and festive event, and this year did not disappoint. Special shout out to Chef Morris Salerno from Bistecca - An Italian Steakhouse for generously supplying the dinner!

Lewisville Noon Rotary last week honored high school senior Angela Hernandez as the May 2023 Exceptional Student of the Month. 
 
“Not one teacher has anything negative to say about Angela,” said teacher Tim Sudovsky, who met Hernandez through a science class. “She’s just kind,” he added, noting that she listens well and truly cares about people. She also has excelled academically and is graduating with a certificate to be a veterinary tech through LISD’s TECH West vocational program. Hernandez is pictured above with Mr. Sudovsky, her mother, Mrs. Escobedo (far left), and LNR Youth Committee Chair Sue Bowman. We applaud Angela on her many achievements and wish her continued success after graduation!

Rounding out three weeks of generosity for the Lewisville Noon Rotary, past president Dirk Dahlke handed out grant funding on behalf of the club's Donations Committee to seven more nonprofits. The recipients were as follows:
 
Lewisville Fire Department Clown Program, which teaches kids about fire safety and water safety. The funds will be used for supplies and props for their presentations at more than a dozen schools throughout the year.
 
Denton County Friends of the Family, which will use the funds for its Pathways program, a year-long mentorship program designed to help kids discover their future career. The nonprofit has 71 children enrolled in the program so far and hopes to serve 120 kids this year.
 
Communities in Schools North Texas (CISNT), which serves in 22 Lewisville ISD schools to provide academic support, basic needs support, and other services to ensure more students overcome barriers to success and graduate high school. The organization assists 2,000 students in Lewisville and more than 6,500 students across all their agencies. 
 
Crisis Responders, which serves Flower Mound residents who have an immediate need due to an emergency, such as a house fire or auto accident. The funds will go to helping with everything from covering gas and groceries to providing temporary shelter for people facing a short-term crisis. 
 
PediPlace, which provides primary pediatric health care services to more than 6,000 children from low-income households, most of whom reside in Denton County. The funds will go toward adding mental health services for children and families.
 
Cross Timbers YMCA, which offers a wide range of programs for preschoolers through active senior adults, as well as health-related programs related to cancer awareness, diabetes prevention, and other medical issues. The funds will help subsidize programs for people who are unable to pay, so no one is ever turned away. 
 
Circle of Friends at Lewisville High School, which serves special needs students and hosts the annual Grand Ball prom for students with physical and mental disabilities. This year’s event served about 40 special students, along with their families and prom escorts. The funds help keep the Grand Ball free so everyone can participate.
BIG FORE Update Coming Soon!
Today's BIG FORE Golf Tournament was a big success, as players enjoyed spectacular weather, good food, and fun prizes to help raise money for more than 20 local charities. Stay tuned for a detailed update in a special edition of the LNR club newsletter later this week!

FAMILY OF ROTARY
 
Lewisville Noon was thrilled to see Dean Ueckert back at Bistecca again last week, and we continue to keep him in our prayers as he begins radiation treatments for throat cancer. 
 
Please also pray for Rotarian Philip Herr and his family  after the recent passing of his aunt Linda.
 
Lastly, please continue to lift up Sheila Collins' daughter, Tiffany, in prayer. She is undergoing a complex series of treatments for her pancreas and needs to first gain weight prior to a transplant procedure. 

You can send any specific prayer requests or praise reports to be included here to Audrey Stansbury at audreystansbury@gmail.com.
