August 3, 2009 — Congratulations to Liz Cunningham, of the Spokane East Stake, for winning the Latter-day Sentinel subscription blitz by having the most family and friends subscribe to the weekly e-mail newsletter!
As soon as the announcement for the contest went out last Wednesday at 9 p.m., Liz quickly got online and began sending out requests for her friend's and family's help in winning half-a-dozen tickets to Saturday night's Spokane Shock playoff game and apparel package, which was generously donated by Brady and Danna Nelson.

"When I first heard about the contest, I was so excited because I thought going to a Shock game would be a great date night, and who can beat free tickets and apparel?" Liz said. "I also wanted to spread the word about the Latter-day Sentinel to my friends in the Spokane area because I know how much I enjoy reading about what is going on in the area!"
Liz attended the game with her husband and four friends and saw the Spokane Shock handily eliminate the Stockton Lightning 62-21.

BYU Management Society promotes ethics, community involvement
By Craig Howard, News EditorShare:
August 3, 2009 — Zags, Huskies, Eagles - and even Utes - are welcome at meetings of the BYU Management Society.
Eric Enloe, a BYU graduate and treasurer of the Spokane chapter, makes it clear that the Cougar fight song is not included at the group's monthly luncheons and topics like Danny Ainge's jump shot or LaVell Edwards' offensive patterns don't top the discussion agenda.
"It's not intended just for BYU alumni," Enloe said. "It's meant to be a service organization that promotes ethics and morality in business."
Established in 1977 by Brigham Young Dean Merrill J. Bateman, the society originally consisted of friends and graduates of the BYU School of Business, now known as the Marriott School of Management. The organization now includes around 6,000 members in 40 cities throughout the U.S. as well as chapters in 10 other countries.

Summer bonus - A last-minute guide to family friendly fun
By Craig Howard, News EditorShare:
August 3, 2009 — The back-to-school sales have started, a few leaves are drifting to the ground and the Washington Nationals have nearly been eliminated from the baseball pennant race.
Don't panic - summer is still here.
The list of warm-weather activities throughout the Inland Northwest runs well through autumn and while you probably won't see the Spokane Symphony performing a free concert in Manito Park with three feet of snow on the ground, residents in the area have been known to celebrate a 55-degree day in October with an event like the Colbert Half Marathon (always held on a Saturday) through the hills of Green Bluff.
As a courtesy to our readers, the Latter-day Sentinel has compiled a condensed list of family friendly activities that might be worth jotting on the calendar as the summer of 2009 winds down.
