Our members also decided to donate $500 to Our Lady of the Wayside, which is also a facility for physically and mentally challenged individuals. Our Lady of the Wayside has one main facility and 44 group homes. They will use our donation for maintenance of the homes. These heartfelt donations are an example of WPA's philanthropic spirit. Branch 14 will sponsor a dinnerdance in commemoration of WPA's 125th anniversary on Saturday, May 21. The cost is $25.00 per person (BYOB), which includes a Chicken Paprikás dinner and live music by the Hungarians. Deadline to purchase tickets is May 10.

The Home Office is sponsoring an outing to the Lake Erie Captains baseball game in Eastlake, Ohio, on July 29, which is Hungarian night. It will be a fun evening for the whole family. There will be stands of delicious Hungarian food and merchandise. For more information, call Branch President Caroline Lanzara at 216-581-8979. Another enjoyable activity will be a branch outing to see the marvelous musical "Jersey Boys" at Playhouse Square on June 23. The play depicts the life of Frankie Valii and the emergence of the Four Seasons. The biographical storyline is uplifting and tragic, and the music of Frankie Valii and the Four Seasons is wonderful.
