Gary Lynch Memorial Scholarship Recipients Funded by Lorraine Lynch

Breanna Kane, Gary Adkins, and Katie Langan are this year’s recipients of the Gary Lynch Memorial Scholarship. Breanna is currently enrolled in the ASL Interpreter pro-gram at Scott Community College (SCC). While attending classes, she remains active in the Sign Language Club, German Club, and S.A.V.E Club. After graduating, her goal is to gain employment in a call center during the week and assist in hospitals on weekends. Gary previously worked in the culinary arts field until he decided to attend SCC to study Pre-Engineering. He is an active participant in SCC’s Honors Program, Engineering Club, and HAVEN. Katie is currently enrolled in SCC’s Nursing program. In her goal statement, Katie states she is a “dedicated single mother” who still finds time to volun-teer with the Girl Scouts, teach Sunday school classes, and participate on a praise and worship team. Joe Gomez is the proud owner of his own business, Los Primos – a busy restaurant in Davenport with a growing reputation for fresh, flavorful authentic Mexican food. Joe made a decision to turn his life around and enroll in the Culinary Arts program at Scott Community College. Together with support from family and others, Los Primos now em-ploys 8 people and is enjoying a growing business in its first year.

LAST MEETING – January 8, 2016 – Bruce Berger; City of Davenport Sixty three members and guests attended the first meeting of 2016. Guests were Jan Touney, Matt and Sarah Bambery, all guests of Bill Tubbs. January birthdays were celebrated. Eric Langan was the sergeant and collected $52 in fines. Rich Horst introduced Bruce Berger with the City of Davenport, as the speaker. He says his job is “Customer Service” to keep area businesses satisfied with things that the Quad City area has to offer and to lure new developers to the area. Bruce spoke a lot about the relocation of the Kraft Heinz plant to the Eastern Iowa Commer-cial Park from downtown Davenport. There will be a loss of jobs when the plant first opens, but ex-pansion is expected in the future. The State of Iowa will have to construct a new road and/or widen other streets for the access the new facility will need. Please see the inside of this newsletter for information about the Special Olympics Basketball skills and other opportunities coming up soon.
