Branch News at Scally's Golf Center in Coraopolis, Pa., on Saturday, July 19. Scally's has a fun miniature golf course, and the kids will enjoy refreshments after a long morning on "the links." If you are a golfer, you should try to attend one of our tournaments and enjoy this fun, fraternal event. Even if you don't golf, we all enjoy being together and sharing good food and conversation. Just a reminder that the 14th An­nual WPA Picnic-A Great Fraternal Fest is quickly approaching. This year, it's being held on Saturday, Sept. 6, at Scenic View. Come and join us for what promises to be one of the best picnics ever. Hope all the kids in Branch 352 are enjoying our "Just 4 Kidz" sec­tion in the magazine. There are some fun crafts and games to keep the young ones busy. We even have a contest with prizes every few months. Happy birthday to all those cel­ebrating a birthday this month. May God bless you with many more, and may all of them be healthy. Get well wishes to anyone who's feeling under the weather. Contin­ued prayers and get well wishes to Arlene Csornán. Hope all of you enjoy your sum­mer, and don't forget to wear sun­screen if you are going to be outside for any length of time.

Branch 800 Altoona, PA by Dave Greiner July is here, bringing warm, sunny days and many outdoor activities. The month starts with our nation celebrating Independence Day on July 4th. Branch 800 hopes all mem­bers enjoy this day with family and friends and can catch a fireworks display that night. Branch 800 has the honor of awarding a monetary gift each year to the male senior with the high­est grade point average in religion classes over four years at Bishop Guilfoyle Catho­lic High School. This year's recipi­ent was Justin T. Kirkland. Justin (pictured left) also received the Altoona Rotary Club Scholarship, and the Franciscan University In­stitutional Grant. At school, he was involved in boy's soccer, Student Council, SADD, Eco Club, Future Business Leaders of America, Mis­sion Club, and Peer Ministry. Justin is a member of St. Michael's Parish in Hollidaysburg, where he serves as a eucharistic minister and as the student representative on Parish Council. He will be attending Fran­ciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio. Branch 800 wishes Justin good luck after graduation. Our branch would like to extend belated birthday wishes to longtime Branch President Vince Frank and to Dennis Greiner. The Branch 800 summer picnic will be held at Highland Park in Altoona on Wednesday, Aug. 6, at 6:00 p.m. We hope all our members can attend this summer outing and enjoy an evening of fratemalism and socializing. We ask that all members call Vince Frank at 814-695-0213 for reservations. The deadline is July 30. Branch 800 hopes all golfers, young and old, have an enjoyable time at the WPA golf tournament this month. We also hope everyone was able to enjoy and play the Clutter-Buster Scavenger Hunt described by Gerry D. Clown in last month's Just 4 Kidz. Don't forget to call Bob Jones for any and all of your life insurance needs at 814-942-2661. The summer is going fast, but there is still time to see our local Altoona Curve and, of course, the Pirates for a day of fun and frater­­nalism. Until next month, stay cool! Branch 8121 St. Marys, PA by Mary Lou Schutz The report of our May branch meet­ing didn't make it to the Home Office in time for the June issue of the magazine, but we want our members to know that in May we received a letter confirming our branch's $50 donation to the Chris­tian Food Bank as our participation in WPA's Easter Basket program. We also received a letter thanking our branch for sponsoring a lane at the WPA Annual Bowling Tourna­ment. At our June meeting, we decided to sponsor a hole at this year's WPA Golf Tournament, making a $100 donation to the WPFA Scholarship Foundation. As our next meeting would nor­mally fall on July 3, it was decided to instead meet a week later on July 10 at 7:00 p.m. at 515 N. St. Marys Road. At that time, we will finalize plans for our annual picnic. Please join us. A date to remember Deadline for submis­sions to our magazine is the 10th day of each month. If you have any questions, please contact John E. Lovász toll-free at 1-800-848- 7366, ext. 135. William Penn Life ° July 2014 ° 23
