May 12th May DCM: Origami Challenge

May 13th Kiwanis Bowl-a-Thon

May 13th D62 and D70 DCMS

May DCM: Origami Challenge There is an old legend that states that when someone can fold a thousand paper cranes, a wish of their choice comes true. A few clubs have messaged me with the idea of making cranes to donate them to Doernbecher, so I thought that it would be wonderful to do this at a DCM where you can all learn how to make them and meet new people while you're at it! Hope to see you all there!

In Love and Service, Julia Dayton
