Summer Service Day
| Tom Mitchell helps paint the playground equipment.__________________________________________ St. Anastasia Catholic School would like to thank the nearly 50 volunteers who participated in the annual Campus Service Day on June 26 to clean, beautify and prepare the campus for the new school year. Each summer, the St. Anastasia Catholic Church Men's and Women's Groups, along with the school, host a Service Day to freshen up the campus grounds and give parents an opportunity to earn volunteer hours for the next school year. Projects this year included painting the inside walls of the auditorium, painting the playground and general landscaping work. We would also like to thank the St. Anastasia Catholic Church's Men's and Women's Groups for their assistance, dedication and leadership at St. Anastasia Catholic School.
Dave and Bennett Suba and Troy Church help paint under the pavilion.

Van Duzer Foundation Fundraiser for the Irish Family
| On Wednesday, August 11 from 4-10 p.m., Big Apple Pizza and the Van Duzer Foundation will host a fundraiser for Ben Irish. Ben, who is now 9-years-old, is the grandson one of our kindergarten aides, Mrs. Doris Zrallack.
At age 3, Ben began a two year battle with cancer and recently underwent open heart surgery to repair his coronary artery. Ben is recovering now, but his family has been devastated financially due to the exorbitant medical bills and associated costs. The Van Duzer Foundation is donating 100% of all the sales, tips and donations during the event.
Join Big Apple Pizza at 2311 South 35th Street in Fort Pierce on Wednesday, August 11 from 4-10 p.m. to celebrate with music, food and family fun. Wear your green and become part of Team Ben and the "Fighting Irish!"For more information, visit www.thevanduzerfoundation.org.
