Annual Golf Classic "Scores" Again
 Alumni, friends and supporters, joined the Annual Golf Classic on May 4, for a picture perfect golfing experience. Golfers enjoyed gorgeous weather, the pristine Hillcrest golf course, and fabulous silent auction items - including golf foursomes, weekend getaways, and fine dining gift certificates. Through the support of the C-M Community, donors and sponsors, we raised funds which will benefit C-M academic, athletic, and financial aid programs. Their generosity ensures our students will continue to move Toward a Better World.
Thank you to our sponsors, donors, volunteers, faculty and staff, for their hard work and enthusiasm in supporting this important fundraising event. A special thank you to this year's Grand Corporate Sponsor Protano's Bakery, and Platinum Corporate Sponsors Mimi's Ravioli and Keiser University. Please click here to view a complete list of our Annual Golf Classic major contributors.
Mark your calendars and save the date for next year's Annual Golf Classic on May 3, 2013.
Photos from the Golf Classic are now available at www.cmlionsden.org under "Group Photos" and at www.facebook.com/chaminade.madonna.

Sports Hall of Fame Brings Alumni Together
 Current and former C-M student-athletes, coaches, family and community members came together to honor Jeffrey Bickle '75, Walter Reynoso '78, Pablo Mila '79, and Dominique Accetturo '02 at the 2012 Sports Hall of Fame dinner and induction ceremony on May 5. (Skip Wiley '00 deferred his induction this year due to a death in his family.) The evening was a beautiful tribute to the honorees and to the legacy of Chaminade-Madonna athletics programs.
A special thank you to our Master of Ceremonies for the evening, Wayne Schuchts '79, recipient of the 2003 Alumni Sports Hall of Fame Award.
The enthusiam and support for the Sports Hall of Fame is a testament to the C-M Community's continued commitment to this revived tradition. Many are already looking forward to next year's event scheduled for May 4, 2013.
Pictured here are Wayne Schuchts '79, Jeffrey Bickle '75, C-M President Rev. Larry Doersching, S.M., Dominique Accetturo '02, Pablo Mila '79, and Walter Reynoso '78.

Volunteer Appreciation Party
 The C-M Family relies heavily on volunteer efforts throughout the school year. As a token of our appreciation, we invited all volunteers and committee members to our Volunteer Appreciation Party on May 17. Volunteers enjoyed a reception complete with food, refreshments, dancing, and fun.
We owe the success of this past year's events to our volunteers. Thank you for your donations of time, talent, and treasures!
