The 70th board of Assistance League Glendale was installed on May 14 at the Oakmont Country Club. Alma Tycer handed over the gavel to Karen Millman at the club’s annual meeting and installation of new officers.

Tycer completed two years as president of the thriving club when she handed the reins to the new president and her officers. The new board of officers are Joyce Gharib, Sylvia Kowal, Marcie Haug, Alma Tycer, Karin Jonke, Karen Millman, Sally Bensen, Danette Erickson, Roseann Case, Donna Franklin, Karen Saunders, Pat Spencer and Mary Lo Follett.

The club, started in 1943, still works to help children and seniors in Glendale by supplying school uniforms to children in need, back packs for children in foster care, encourage reading through bringing children’s authors and illustrators into the classroom, providing low cost SAT classes, encouraging women to go to college with scholarships, imparting vocational education and subsidizing a monthly lunch for seniors.
