USA Swimming Short Course Nationals
The Michigan swim team will be competing in this event, and our athletes would love to have some local alums show up to cheer them on. The meet begins on Thursday, 12/03/2009, continues through Saturday, 12/05/2009, and will be held at the King County Aquatic Center in Federal Way.
Our Scholarship Fund
The U-M Club of Seattle is fortunate to have a sizable endowment that allows us to select 2 - 4 students from Washington every year and give them scholarships of several thousand dollars each — enough to make a real difference in their ability to continue their studies and go on to attain their degrees at the University of Michigan. These scholarships are only possible as the result of a long tradition of local Wolverines contributing generously to our Seattle scholarship fund. I want to take this opportunity to encourage all of you to continue this tradition, either through throwing a few dollars into our scholarship jar at one of our events, or by making a more significant donation — see our Web Site for all the details. Gifts to this fund are eligible for a charitable tax deduction up to the full amount.
The U-M Alumni Association
This newsletter is published by the University of Michigan Club of Seattle, which is an affiliate of the Alumni Association of the University of Michigan. All of our club’s operating funds come from a portion of the Alumni Association dues paid by local members, so if you’re not already a member, we invite you to join! You will automatically become a member of your local club when you join AAUM.
