Exciting times for the GLD!
Here are just a few of the exciting things that are already taking place across the Division this year:

  • Despite snow and ice storms across Indiana, many volunteers made their way to Indiana Lobby Day on January 27, to talk with their legislators and have their voices heard!
  • Coaches vs. Cancer takes off this month! People are wearing their sneakers to work, and basketballs are bouncing across Michigan and Indiana in an effort to raise funds in the fight against cancer.
  • Relay For Life is around the bend, and the air is abuzz with Relay fever! In an effort to have these amazing events documented, the GLD has it's very own YouTube channel, and last but not least...
  • VOICES is launching a photo and video contest!

All the information you need is located in this issue! Soak it up, have some fun, and make a point to get involved this year. You won't regret it!
