National Orange Day - SOS Children's Village

(03/28/09) We celebrated National Orange Day (March 24, 2009) a few days late this year.  On Saturday, March 28, 2009 the club held a mini-block party for the kids at SOS Children's Village - Florida.  On Saturday, March 28, 2009 the members of the SUACSF held their celebration of National Orange Day.  The afternoon began with age appropriate games and activities.  This consisted of basketball free-throws and football passing for the older kids.  We had a clown, face-painting, and magic for the younger ones.  There was refreshments with an orange theme and picture taking the whole afternoon.  The food was creamsicles, cheese balls, whole oranges, and orange juice.  I cannot show pictures of the kids for security reasons, but here is a shot of our members wearing their SU/SOS T-shirts.   The kids, staff, and our members got a T-shirt proclaiming National Orange Day. 

In addition to the fun 'n games the club made a generous donation to the organization.  Individual members made financial contributions too.

The Express

Update 10/13/08 Boca Raton:  The club held one of its most successful events last night (10/12/08) for the showing of the movie, the Express.  Over 60 members turned out for lunch, a fund raiser, and the movie showing.

Wally Bobkiewicz wrote the following article on the Syracuse University Alumni Listserver September 13, 2008:

The movie lives up to expectations.  It is a must see for anyone who has every gone to school here and every fan of SU football.

I attended the premiere and the after party last night (along with several other SUAA Board members).  It rained on and off here yesterday, but no rain as folks gathered for the premiere between 6:00 and 7:30 PM.  There was indeed the promised "orange carpet" arrivals in front of the theater.  Many members of the 1959 National Championship team, legends Jim Brown and Floyd Little and all of the stars of the movie.  Continued...
