A WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT Welcome 2017! The New Year seems to roll in carrying with it the hope for a healthy and productive year, and the promise of good things ahead...2017 is no different. I see a very bright future for NLYM Tustin. We have such a talented group of mothers and young men with many talents and interests. With the efforts of all of us, this can be nothing less than a fantastic year for our Tustin Chapter. Mothers -‐ would you resolve to sponsor at least one new member during this upcoming membership cycle? If you don't know a prospective member personally, you can be a courtesy sponsor. Don't be shy -‐-‐ with every new member, we reinforce the rich membership that has been established in Tustin!

FROM THE CLASS OF 2017-‐ David Hulme, Public Relations
The Class of 2017 had a productive second meeting at the Nagle’s house. We started with our guest speaker, Troy Linaker, who is a Senior Portfolio Manager for Wells Fargo Bank. Troy taught us all how to manage our money and to invest it in the smartest ways possible. He also gave us steps to achieving our financial goals. Some of these steps included planning your future, making short and long term goals, assessing your needs vs. wants, starting as quickly as possible, and sticking with your plan through ups and downs. A very important lesson he taught us was how to investigate your financial options and to closely assess the risk vs. reward of an investment. For example, there is very little risk in investing in bonds, but you won’t make as much money as someone who takes the risk and invests in equity. I thought the most interesting thing was that you can invest in far more than just stocks. You can invest in everything from hobbies and collectibles such as wine and baseball cards, to resources such as gold. There is a whole world full of money out there, and Troy Linaker gave us very valuable tips to invest our money in the right places.
At our business meeting, we decided to do a beach cleanup in Huntington Beach for our fall philanthropy. The beach cleanup will take place on Saturday, December 10th. Our protocol lesson was all about achieving and maintaining a good relationship with your college professors. The lesson focused mostly on earning your professors respect and not treating them in a casual manner. We also discussed preparations for the All-‐League meeting and we all received our parts for the meeting. Brandon and Justin must be Irish because they were lucky enough to win the raffle for the second time in a row. Finally, we finished off the meeting with delicious caramel apples.
FROM THE CLASS OF 2018 – Colin Villegas, Public Relations
On Sunday, November 13th the Class of 2018 enjoyed their grade level meeting at the Galentine home. Our business meeting was conducted by our class president, Braedon Schroeder and those that attended our class philanthropy, The Challenger Classic at Anaheim Stadium shared how the day went. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed helping kids with disabilities enjoy a great day of playing baseball. Next, our guest speaker presented information to us about preparing for college and making sure we are doing everything now that will help us get into the college that we want. It was important for all of us to pay attention to as juniors.
FROM THE CLASS OF 2019, Chris Hallinan, Public Relations
The NLYM Class of 2019's second grade level meeting was held at the Cumming's residence on November 13th. As always, we followed protocol and recited the national anthem. Our speaker for today was, Mike Hallinan, a police officer for the City of Irvine with over 20 years of experience in law enforcement. He discussed how narcotics and alcohol have a negative effect on our body and the dangers of them. One of the most eye-‐opening points he made was the fact that there are drugs out there; even in our schools; but taught us to stay on the right track in life and never get involved with any of that stuff. After our speaker, the officers for our class discussed what upcoming events we have planned. Once again, we had a very productive meeting.
FROM THE CLASS OF 2020, Nicholas Meneses, Public Relations
In our second grade level meeting, we started off by agreeing on our next two service events. We also learned that our class would be watching "Elf" the play for our cultural activity. After the meeting we had a personal trainer who came in and discussed topics on health. He spoke about the macronutrients protein, carbs, and fats and also talked about ways athletes can perform in better ways.
PROTOCOL/CULTURAL REPORT
TABLE MANNERS
Table manners are the rules of etiquette used while eating. Different cultures observe different rules for table manners. Each family or group sets its own standards for how strictly these rules are to be enforced. It is a new tear, so time to brush up on the basics of polite behavior while attending any meal … here are ten tips to help! 1. Place your napkin in your lap immediately upon sitting down – unfold it while it is in your lap.
When finished or excusing yourself from the table, place napkin neatly to the left of your plate. 2. Turn off your phone and keep it out of sight. Focus on the people at the table with you. 3. Wait for everyone to be served before eating.
4. Use a knife and fork to cut meat, and cut your food one piece at a time. 5. Chew with your mouth closed and eat quietly – no smacking or crunching. 6. Don’t reach across the table – always ask the person closest to pass the item you need. 7. Don’t talk with your mouth full – if you have more than a few words to say, swallow your food,
rest your fork on your plate, and speak before you resume eating. 8. Don’t pick your teeth at the table. 9. Keep elbows off the table while eating; however, when no utensils are being used, it is
acceptable to put your elbows on the table. 10. Say “Thank You”, “Please”, and “Excuse Me” -‐ these small words are magic and should be used
liberally. Joanne Hulme VP, Protocol/Cultural

PHILANTHROPY REPORT
Class of 2020 volunteered last Sunday to clean up Newport Beach. Attached are some pics from Ani and a short excerpt from the Internet on who organized the beach clean up with us.
“The Surfrider Foundation is a non-‐profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world’s oceans, waves and beaches. Founded in 1984 by a handful of visionary surfers in Malibu, California, the Surfrider Foundation now maintains over 50,000 members and 90 chapters worldwide.” Jason said "...it gave me a better sense of how my daily life can affect the ocean, for example, I learned how all those plastic bags from the grocery stores were very harmful to ocean life."
All League Spring Philanthropy Event March 4, 2017
Food Distribution Center Second Harvest’s Food Distribution Center (FDC) in Irvine, CA is the place where we make it all happen. This is where our staff and volunteers work together to sort, package and distribute enough food to feed 200,000 men, women and children each month. Last year Second Harvest distributed the equivalent of more than 19.4 million meals to the hungry in Orange County. We coordinate the delivery of food to hungry families through the Emergency Food Assistance Program and the Emergency Food and Shelter Program and we partner with agencies to supply vital food to families living under the poverty level. Just three hours of your time can make a real difference to someone who’s hungry.
This event is open to the entire chapter and will accommodate up to 100 people. We are hoping to fill the shift entirely with NLYM members and families. The parent to student ratio is 1:10, so for every 10 minors (anyone 17 years old and younger) they ask that there be at least one adult present. So moms, if you are available please let us know.
Signups will be open exclusively to the young men (and our 10 chaperones) on Chapter Web through the end of January. If at that time we have open spots we would like to have families fill in the extra slots. A final count is due to the center by Feb 28, 2017. Volunteer Permission slips are mandatory for everyone and can be found under the files tab.
*The minimum age to volunteer at Second Harvest Food Bank is 14* Erice Cheng VP, Philanthropy Chair
