Past Grand Worthy Advisor 2010 - 2011

G’day Mates!

Hello from all of Connecticut Rainbow as well as the 2010-2011 Tank Gang and Traveling Turtles! This year, with the help of many of the characters from the movie “Finding Nemo”, we are going to be Finding Service.

Our colors this year are Nemo Orange, Dory Blue and Jellyfish Purple.  Our honor stations are Service and Patriotism and our symbol is the star. Our flower is the orchid and this year’s quote is “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others” as said by Mahatma Gandhi.

This year we will be raising money and collecting items for this year's charity, Operation Purple. The National Military Family Association's Operation Purple camps are a time for having fun, making friends, and reminding military kids that they are the Nation's youngest heroes. The Operation Purple program was created in 2004 to fill a need identified by military parents to "help us help our kids." The mission of the Operation Purple program is to empower military children and their families to develop and maintain healthy and connected relationships, with their moms and dads who may be serving overseas. They do this through a variety of means, including a free week of camp for the kids and fun reunion events. The program is joint or "purple"—encompassing all Service branches, including the National Guard and Reserve.  For more information about Operation Purple, visit their website at www.militaryfamily.org/our-programs/operation-purple .

I’m so very excited about this year and hope to see many of you in my travels. So grab your goggles and swimsuit, we’re going to be Finding Service!

In Rainbow Love and Service,
Jessica Ziervogel
