PACESETTERS
MONTHLY NEWSLETTER
May
2008
Our
members give back and we would like you to JOIN
US!
The PaceSetters
of the Fox Cities often goes unrecognized
in the community even though the club is
extremely active year round in getting the
Fox Cities community more active and in
promoting better health through club
programs, events and activities.
In addition, the club contributes
monetarily gifts to other
"like-minded" non-profits and
promotes member volunteerism to other
organizations, non-profits and charities.
Below are just some examples of how the
PaceSetters give back to our community.
We are proud of the club's altruistic
reputation and even more proud of the
membership for caring about the health of
the citizens of the Fox Cities Wisconsin.
