How long have you lived/worked in Holland?

I have lived in the Holland for all 24 years, so I guess you can call me a lifer.

What besides being HYP do you like to do (Hobbies)?

I really enjoy going to Tiger Baseball games and traveling. I like to experience new people and places. I also like to play softball, football and Basketball.

What do you like best about HYP, or if you’re a new member, what drew you to HYP?

I love the HYP summer sports. It gives you an opportunity to meet new people and have a great time. Also there is nothing like a little friendly competition to bring people together, especially since we get a good mix of guys and girls and not all of us are serious athletes, so things are always interesting.

Our VP, Mr. Hill, is a funny guy; he’d like you to tell us a joke. He’s always looking to add to his own collection.

One day a blonde finds out from a friend that her boyfriend is cheating on her. The next day she goes out and buys a gun. Immediately after, she goes to her boyfriend’s house. She busts down the door and points the gun at her head. “What are you doing?” asks her boyfriend. She yelled back, “Shut up you’re Next.”
