Branch 132 South Bend, IN by the Branch Officers On a snowy Saturday, Our Lady of Hungary Church held its gulyáslangalo dinner. John Burus reported that the gulyás dinner was delicious. Many people went to Mass and, because of the weather, took carry-out. Congratulations to the committee for a successful dinner. Easter is early this year, so beware of the children who will be on Easter break. Happy Easter to all our friends and branch members. We saw in the South Bend Tribune a picture of branch member Loren Vukovits who is a member of the John Glenn High School basketball team. It's good to see our young members active in school events. We saw Loren at our branch Christmas party. I'm sure Grandma Mary Lou and Grandpa Jack are proud of her. Our condolences to the family of Irene Toth. May she rest in peace. Branch 226 McKeesport, PA by Judit I. Borsay We wish happy birthday to all Branch 226 members born in March as well as happy anniversary to the happy couples out there. Branch 226 member Julia Genes turned 97, and we wish her all the best. Our deepest sympathy goes to the Roka family on the loss of their father who was a long-time member of our branch. Our members are busy achieving their goals. WPA members Shelby Harris and Rylee Heyz, along with Kathryn Makay (a member of the WPA Magyar Folk Dancers), went to the JamFest Super Nationals Cheerleading Competition in Indianapolis with their squad from HotCheer All Stars in Elizabeth, Pa. Their team won first place in their division, won first place out of all Junior Level 3 and won the Level Three Grand Champion, beating 500 teams from the U.S. and Canada. Congrats to all of you--you did it! This year is shaping up to be one busy year. Our branch donated a $50 sponsorship to McKeesport Tiger Baseball and another $50 to the McKeesport Intersection for the Join Hands for Hunger program. In more exciting news, our branch will host its first Meet-and-Greet event for our members on Sunday, April 21, at 3:00 p.m. at the Free Hungarian Reformed Church of McKeesport's social hall. More info will be sent out to individual members. For more information and to make reservations, call Branch Coordinator Malvene Heyz at 412- 751-1898. Please RSVP by Monday, April 1. Our officers stay busy during the year with church activities, embroidery classes, coaching baseball, Hungarian folk dancing, etc., but want to share more with you at this Meetand-Greet event. Bring your children to this family-friendly event. Our branch is quite large, and, in order to keep everyone on the same page, we ask that you call Branch Coordinator Malvene to notify her of address changes or deaths in your family. This way, our branch will stay up to date with info and the status of our members. Best wishes for a Blessed Easter! Branch 249 Dayton, OH by Mark Schmidt February and all its snow is gone for good. Now, we are hoping for an early spring and its promise of new life. With spring's promise, isn't it appropriate that we celebrate Easter at this time and its promise of renewed life? Happy Easter and may the good Lord bless you and your family and continue to bless William Penn Association. We thoroughly enjoyed the White Rose Ball in Michigan this year. The young ladies were beautiful in their white gowns as they were presented to the large audience at the Marriott Dearborn Inn Ballroom. The debutantes were escorted by young gentlemen as they performed the palotás, a formal traditional Hungarian dance.
