Point of View
Do you have any big summer trips planned, or will you take the staycation route?
We have family who live in Wisconsin, so we will go up to see them. We will do lots of fishing or sleeping in the boat, depending on what’s biting. We will be around Tongie most of the summer to help prepare our kids for their fall seasons, too.”

Blue Jeans for Babies is a great fundraiser for the March of Dimes! Every child born benefits from the March of Dimes whether born prematurely or full-term. Money raised (over $1.8 billion) is used to help every baby get a healthy start in life thru not only life saving research and prenatal education but in newborn screening. Every dollar counts - did you know today that approx. 1400 babies were born prematurely? Chances are someone you know is walking in the March for Babies - consider making a donation to their efforts or signing up to walk yourself!
