FY09 End-of-Year Bar-B-Que

Another successful year down, SWE Greatland held their annual end-of-year bar-b-que on June 25th to celebrate all their hard work! Laura Strand was generous enough to host the event at her house and surprised us all with a wonderful spread of seasoned steak and chicken. We welcomed new faces and had about a dozen attendees. The weather held out for us and we enjoyed the sunshine with good company. We look forward to our summer break to gear up for new activities for FY10! Congratulations to our new FY10 SWE Greatland Board:

President - Melissa Mormilo
Vice President - Susie Gaulke
Secretary - Stephanie Mormilo
Treasurer - Maria Kampsen
Section Rep - LaQuita Chmielowski

AK Run for Women Port-a-Potty

It never fails...always seems to rain on us when it's time to decorate a port-a-potty for the run for women! Melissa, Stephanie, Susie, and Cindy still managed to put their decorating skills to the test and came up with a unique "job shack" theme port-a-potty. With cones, flags, hard hat, and toolboxes, we were able to accomplish the "construction site" vision. Every year the Alaska Run for Women requests local groups to sponsor a port-a-potty to be decorated and judged before the race. The winner receives the bedpan award! Although SWE Greatland has had the privelege of being the care taker of this bedpan in the past, we were no winner this year but we always have a good time! Check out our past port-a-potty decorating skills in our photo gallery.
