Dear
MSUAA Regional Clubs, Constituent Groups and National Board Members:
Congratulations to the MSU
Alumni Club of Bay County! In spite of a late winter
Michigan snowstorm, the club's annual scholarship dinner brought out more
than 80 alumni and friends of the University for food, fun and a 50-50 raffle.

$4,000.00 for the event that will go to its newly established scholarship
fund. Rich tells us that they are planning their second annual dinner
cruise from the Saginaw River to the Bay in June. Look for more details
later!
