THERE’S NOTHING QUITE LIKE SHARING A HEARTY LAUGH…
Friends and neighbors came together at the Club to enjoy the Stand-Up Comedy Show featuring comic Bobby Tessel. Tessel casually strolls up to the microphone as if walking into his living room. He raises his hand to give a slight wave to the crowd as he utters one word, “hi”. The audience responds immediately with laughter. Within seconds of his arrival on stage, he has captured the crowd and squired them away into an atmosphere of comfort. For the next hour, Tessel rattles off joke after joke for his attentive throng. Moving from subject to subject, his coolness belies the tangential state of topics. There was plenty of laughter, friendly teasing, and a strong sense of camaraderie.
VERDES HABITAT FOR HUMANITY We’re making a difference, one build at a time.
The Verdes volunteer team has successfully completed the 29th Habitat house. A dedicated group of 35 volunteers built the house over 15 workdays. Thank you to everyone involved! We have reached our funding goal of $130,000. As additional donations come in, these funds will be securely invested to cover any future cost overruns and the increasing price of materials. A heartfelt letter from the recipient family: We are immensely thankful for being chosen and for the time, love, and effort that each of you dedicated to building our home. Working alongside you was a truly special experience. You have helped lay the foundation for our future, and we will cherish this experience forever. You all have the remarkable ability to make dreams come true. With love
and deep appreciation, the Zamora Family. A message from Habitat Central AZ:
