of our chapter registrar, Debbie Hinton.
Allie lists the following as extracurricular activities: Student Council; Athletic Leadership Council;
and is in the National Honor Society; she is a post-secondary student at Kent State-Tuscawaras campus. She is quite
the athlete and participates in basketball, softball, and is currently a member of the Road Runner Elite travel softball team
and has played with Northern Ohio fast pitch and Twisted Sisters fast pitch travel teams.
Her community service includes Rotary Internet Club; St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Newcomerstown, and
has helped with Family Day for elementary students; rung the Salvation Army bell; served Thanksgiving dinner at CUMC; raked
