by Arlena Johnson Children's Programs VISTA The Our Club Summer Youth Program started off with a big bang thanks to Drew Weber and U.S. Pizza Company! It was wonderful to have a donor that did more than just give a donation. They gave us a summer to remember.          Thinking back on the first day of this year‟s program, I remember seeing the smiling faces of over 75 children, all excited to pick out their swimsuits, grab their water bottles, and slide on their awesome new flip flops. Seeing those smiles and hearing that excitement was definitely the highlight of the summer. Thanks to U.S. Pizza‟s hard work and love for Our House, we were able to provide for all of the children that attended our summer program. It was great that Drew Weber challenged not only his employees but also the employees of other U.S. Pizza locations in a contest to see who could raise the most money for our kids‟ summer swimming supplies. Together the locations brought in a total of over $4,000 that got us off to a great start.
