  • I try to stay busy, including teaching my kids to give back to the community. I have served as many local community boards, youth groups to obtain scholarships and grants for kids who could not afford to participate in afterschool daycare or sports. I have been a team mom for all 3 of my boys in all sports they participated in, for over 18 years football, baseball, soccer, lacrosse and basketball. I was commissioner of Baseball field over 5 leagues. With all those leagues I initiated Project for Veterans creating to go kits and taking them to the local VA to pass out. The Veterans as well as the kids appreciated it and learned.
