EARTH DAY 2025

This year’s Earth Day Clean Up was a great success! Thanks to the incredible efforts of our volunteers, we collected over 60 bags of litter from our community. Your time and dedication made a real difference, and we’re so grateful for your help. A special thank-you to Tacotlán for generously supporting the event and treating our amazing volunteers to delicious tacos. Join us next year as we work to target even more areas in our ward and make an even bigger impact!

Salsa is Life Event

We had an amazing time at the Salsa is Life event held at St. Genevieve’s Church! It was a vibrant afternoon filled with dance, health, and community. Special thanks to Izis la Enfermera de la Salsa, Eli, Erica, and ASI Health for leading dance lessons, hosting a Q&A, and providing free glucose and blood pressure screenings. This event reminded us that our health is the most important thing—and finding fun ways to stay active, like dancing, can make all the difference. We’re especially grateful to Izis for treating us to a wonderful performance to close out the event!

9U Clubhouse Cardinals

Great news—the 9U Clubhouse Cardinals claimed another victory this past month at the West Suburban Turf Shootout! This dedicated and hardworking young team continues to strive for excellence in their division. I’m proud to have such an outstanding group representing our ward. If you're interested in baseball, softball, training, or strength and conditioning, stop by The Clubhouse Athletics on Belmont Avenue to learn more about their programs.
