Happy St. Joseph's Day Cedar Rapids; Congratulations Panthers!


Today, March 19, 2010 is St. Joseph's Day. Many will celebrate wearing the color red.

Tomorrow, our community will celebrate with the 33rd annual St. Joseph's Day Parade. Traditionally, here in Cedar Rapids, the Irish enjoy St. Patrick's Day and the Czech enjoy St. Joesph's Day. Of course, we can all enjoy celebrating being Irish and Czech once a year.

It's healthy to be proud of one's heritage. Here's information on various Local Ethnic Clubs and Organizations in the City of Five Seasons.

We are proud to congratulate the University of Northern Iowa with the Panthers first round win in the NCAA Tournament on Thursday night in Oklahoma City. Robin and Carole Tucker are proud to be Panther parents!

The First Round of the NCAA Tournament begins today

It's March Madness time! The NCAAs are upon us and many of you hopefully have your brackets filled out.

Robin Tucker had the pleasure of attending an Universality of Memphis Executive Education for the Global Leader course back in September 2006 in St. Louis, MO. It was a collaboration between FedEx Human Resource Development Department and the Wang Center of International Business at The University of Memphis.

So, here's my final pick for 2009:

The University of Memphis Tigers
Other Final Four teams:
UNC, Louisville and Villanova
My alma mater, Creighton University was a final bubble team this year. They will play in the second round of the NIT vs. the University of Kentucky on Monday night. Not quite the same.
The University of Iowa, Iowa State University and Drake University all came up short this year.
We do want to wish our daughter's school the very best in the NCAA Tournament. The University of Northern Iowa Panthers will face the Purdue Boilermakers in Portland, OR today. The Panthers will carry the torch for the MVC this season.
