As a Commissioner on the Walnut Creek Youth Commission Cade acts as a voice for the youth in his community and further motivates his peers to be active volunteers in the community. He appreciates the passion and generosity CSF has for assisting Las Lomas high school students in pursuing their dreams and looks forward to representing CSF as a Sealbearer for a Lifetime.

Hannah Feil, 2020 CSF Seymour Award Central Region Finalist

Hannah Feil is a senior at El Diamante High School. She loves learning, baking, painting, traveling, and spending time with her family. When she is not working on her military care package project or compiling a range of stories for her humanities website, Hannah daydreams of the day she will have both a PhD degree and a cupcake bakery. Because of Indiana Jones, Hannah will pursue archaeology at BYU in the Fall.

Hannah was nominated for this prestigious award by Chapter 1263 Adviser Jerry Perez. Jeffrey Hohne is Principal of El Diamante High School in Visalia Unified School District.

Year-end Grade Requirements in Uncertain Times

During these uncertain times, CSF hopes that advisers will use their discretion on how to handle year-end grade requirements for those students still wishing to use this semester to qualify as Life Members/Sealbearers, as well as for CSF & CJSF fall membership which will be impacted by this semester’s grades.

Although many chapters ask members to do a certain amount of community service, attend meetings, etc, these are not required by CSF or CJSF in order to be members, or to earn Life Member/Sealbearer status (which includes the lamp pin & diploma seal) at the end of the senior year.  Again, it is at the discretion of the adviser as to how missing these activities will impact other recognitions established by the individual chapter.

Good luck in the weeks to come, and thank you for all of your hard work for CSF & CJSF!

CSF/CJSF Co-Presidents
