Success: ND Soccer Tailgater at Creighton’s Morrison Stadium
We saw over 100 spirited Club Members, students, parents, and friends on a beautiful Sunday, August 18. The Skutt Catholic High School Marching Band turned the corner of VanTeicher Mall and entertained us for an hour, including the Fight Song. Members took the opportunity to greet our new freshmen, and to renew friendships on the lawn.
The Club Board is especially appreciative of the time and effort invested by: The cold beverage team; Andy Fenoglio ’88 and Bob Murphy ’80, grillmen; and Catherine Kelly SMC ’81, executive producer. Special thank you to Maggie McKeon for her announcements on the KVSS Spirit Catholic Radio Network.

Hesburgh Month of Service
Each May, Notre Dame Clubs around the country celebrate the legacy of Fr. Hesburgh by completing service projects in their communities. Last year, over 20 ND Club of Omaha members took part in our day of service. This year we hope to gather even more volunteers for our service day on Saturday, May 18.
We will be working at the Jesuit Academy camp located at 245th and Q in Elkhorn. This family friendly event includes a range of activities for any volunteer. Cabins will need to be cleaned, the gravel driveway filled in, and hedges trimmed. Bring your shovels, rakes, and rags and the club will provide lunch.
Individuals or families are welcome to help any time between 9:30 and 2:00 (lunch around noon). If would like to attend this event, please fill out the volunteer form at this link.
