U of M alumni moving or traveling to Miami, Fort Lauderdale, or the Keys can use the Relocation Connection program to get insights from regional hosts. We have 8 hosts so far and would like more in order to better connect perspectives and new communities. Go to http://alumni.umich.edu/relocation/ for more information about this member benefit.
Local Scholarship Recipient The Club awarded a scholarship for the 2005-2006 school year to a student coming from the Miami-Fort Lauderdale area.
