Link to the May Special Edition dedicated to "Champs" Allis

Project POOCH lost a very special friend this Spring – Charlie ("Champs") Allis brought wisdom and unconditional acceptance as a board member and mentor to Project POOCH youth. The May 2009 Special Edition of our newsletter is a tribute to this remarkable man.
