Saving a part of Pleasure Island at Walt Disney
World. As a family we are not into the bar scene, nor have
we ever been, however, the
Adventurer's Club on Pleasure Island, offers family-oriented late
night fun- comedy, audience participation and personal interaction
with outrageous over the top characters that never fail to amuse and
leave a positive lasting impression on you. Disney has scheduled
the club to close permanently on September 27. If you'd like to

We're

About
last year . . .
This past year we explored Eastern Europe and had the
opportunity to reconnect with family roots. The Y2K Family went
to Eastern Europe this year and met with relatives in Austria and the
Slovak Republic (above) as they took a 9 country tour there.
This
year's trip was themed "Explorations to Eastern Europe". We
traveled to the 'old country' of the Slovak Republic and many other
countries of Eastern Europe to experience their cultures and see for
ourselves the lands of our ancestors.

Here's How You
and Your Family can be Hometown Heroes:
Families
helping families. That what we're all about and that's what
America does best!
WE know that the character of America is at its best when faced
with calamities. We need your help with the flood victims in
Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. What can you do?
Plenty, and you don't have to leave home to do it. Here are
3 things you and your family can do to help:
1. Pray. Pray for the people who are the victims
of Hurricane Katrina and for the rescue and recovery efforts.
2. Donate. You can donate money to the
American Red Cross so that they
can but food and water, you can also donate your time to the
American Red Cross by helping
them to man telephones and help organize relief supplies in your area
locally. You can offer your money or time either through their
website (click here), or by
calling 1-800-HELP-NOW.
3. Encourage other families in your area to donate, time,
food, money to either the American
Red Cross or a local church-based charity dedicated to the relief
effort.
4. Continue your normal activities as well as you can.
It is important to keep the national and local economy moving as
normally as possible. You can help by keeping up your normal routine
and supporting your local businesses. Then need to keep their
people employed as well.

Honoring
Those who Serve
Please remember
the cost of your freedom. Over 1000 service men and women
have died to keep terrorists off our shores and bottled up in
Iraq. Honor those who died to keep
Terrorism, Fascism and Communism off our shores, and those who
continue that work today. Please also consider a donation to a
charity or service that supports our troops, especially those
supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.
