Welcome to Lemon Grove University! My name is Audrey M., and I will be your student leader for today. We here at LGU are excited to welcome you all. It is my privilege to tell you about what has been going on at LGU this past semester. We have been using California’s stay-at-home order to benefit our communities. We have been making masks for our communities and donating them to businesses and people in our community. Over the summer, we also made hats for babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at one of our local hospitals.
We college women like to have fun, as well as help our community. We were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to go pick strawberries in Carlsbad in early June. Of course, we followed County and State mandates! Our adult advisors also did a drive-by parade to celebrate the students of LGU. We were also excited to welcome students from within our state and from other states to our camping-themed OV in August.
LGU is very proud of our two recent graduates, Audrey M. and Rosemarie M. Both graduated high school this summer and are attending college, with the hope of using their degrees to help their communities. They join our two Grand Officers Rebecka S. and Taylor-Ann Q.
We are so proud of California Rainbow for its commitment to keeping everyone safe by holding all events virtually. LGU looks forward to being able to hold events in person soon, but in the meantime, we would love to see you at our virtual events. Here at Lemon Grove University, we are grateful for our members, including two Grand Officers, who help decide our events. We cannot wait to connect with you all again in person soon. Stay safe, students!
