Belles to Benefit
from National Championship Print! |
|
 |
Our own
Charter Member Bengal Beau, Jack Jaubert, has been tapped
by LSU to do the "Official 2003 National Championship
Commemorative Print." When given the news by LSU's
business office, one of the first things Jack thought of
was the Bengal Belles. Jack was one of the founding
members of the Belles and the Belles always have a special
place in his heart. He has decided to donate to the TAF,
on behalf of the Belles, a substantial portion of his
share of the proceeds from any Fan Edition prints sold to
Belles. This donation is specifically intended to assist
the Belles in meeting their annual pledge to financially
support the Academic Center. The commemorative edition
does not benefit the Belles, so please be sure to order
the Fan Edition if your intent is to help the
Belles. Enter the word "Belle" in the Special code
section of the order form on his website
www.JackJaubert.com.
He will also personalize a print to you if you enter the
message you desire. Jack takes great pleasure in helping
the Belles support our student athletes. |

Bengal Belles Present Scrapbook
of 2003 Season to Terry Saban |
|
 |
|
Bengal Belles present Terry Saban her scrapbook. |
| The
Bengal Belles have been busy making memories of the
fantastic football season. The Belles presented Terry
Saban, wife of LSU football coach, Nick Saban with a
scrapbook of the 2003-2004 National Championship
season. Last year the scrapbook was made to help Terry
remember several of the games she missed, but this
year Terry didn’t miss any of the 14 games this year.
The scrapbook includes all 14 games and snapshots of
the football season. |
The
Belles were also instrumental in having scrapbooks
made for the 22 senior football players to help them
remember the fantastic season. The scrapbooks were
made by Dr. Susan Bankston and Sherry Chenevert of
Scrapbook Hardware with pictures provided by Mark
Rayner and Dr. Phillip Cancilleri.

A Note from
Terry Saban... |
Dear Friends,
Nick and I would like to express our sincere thanks for the
beautiful “work of art” scrapbook for this past 2003 National
Championship season! It is simply the perfect gift... to be
able to capture the spirit of every game this season is a
thrill every time we look at it. But the way it’s put together
is so creative! We were able to share it with recruits and
their families and look over their shoulders as they turned
the pages and we remembered the excitement, the action, and
the emotions! Thank you for all you do! As the daffodils pop
their heads out of the ground, one can only be reminded of one
thing...Spring Ball!
Sincerely yours, Terry and Nick

Bengal Belles
Honor Volunteers at Luncheon February 17th |
|
More than 80 Bengal Belle volunteers were honored at a
February 17 luncheon at Boudreaux’s
for their many fund-raising endeavors to support the Cox
Communications’ Academic Center for Student Athletes as
well as their continued support of LSU Tiger Sports.
|
Prior to the meeting, volunteers had their picture made
with the National Championship Football Foundation’s
MacArthur Bowl Trophy and the Nokia Sugar Bowl Trophy on
loan from the Athletic Department by Dr. Phillip
Cancilleri, a Bengal Beau. |
|
 |
|
Aimée Simon, Bengal Belles
president, opened the luncheon by reminding everyone about
the fantastic championship season and the contributions
that the Belles made to an awesome football group. During
the salad course, the volunteers enjoyed playing
Tiger-Bingo for door prizes and were treated to the LSU
Football recruiting video reserved for prospective tiger
football players. At the conclusion of lunch, Aimée
introduced Athletic Director, Skip Bertman, who praised
the Belles for all the work they have done for the past
eight years supporting Tiger Athletics. Skip then
introduced Jenni Peters, Marketing Director for Olympic
Sports, which were recipients of a $15,000 donation from
the Belles this year. |
|
Jack Jaubert and Suzanne Burke unveiled the official
commemorative painting representing the LSU victory in the
Sugar Bowl and the season. Jack had to have help
unrolling the canvas, as he had just finished the painting
hours earlier. The luncheon concluded with the highlight
video of the 2003 LSU Football season. The music and
videos were coordinated by Bob Blanchard. |
|
Sylvia Duke, Sharon Pol, Janice Guitreau and Simon
coordinated the luncheon with Julie Levert and her
committee assisting with decorations. Everyone received a
set of miniature LSU football helmet ornaments from the
Bengal Belles board. |
