Since publication is behind, I've given the editors the option of combining the April and May ads to catch up. Charity: Eric Breidenbach – Report Submitted Our committee continues its work on expanding the automotive scholarship program. We had a highly productive meeting with key individuals at Shoreline Community College on March 21 and were thoroughly impressed with their program. A student interview schedule will be established. We have an upcoming meeting this month with Clover Park Technical College on April 12. We have had good initial dialog with Renton Technical College and expect a meeting this month as well. Unfortunately, we have had difficulties with the Lake Washington Institute of Technology that will end our engagement with their two programs. An article for Spiel is being prepared and will highlight the scholarship program and member match challenge. 44 Spiel – May 2022
