at the ABOT table during the Honan Road Race

 

The morning of the Honan Road Race was so wet, many people thought the events would be canceled. However, the race went off as scheduled. I was very proud to represent the ABOT with sponsoring the Race and having a table which gave us immeasurable visibilty. My sincere thanks goes to the race committee and those who attended: Shlomo Pinkas, Margarita Montero, Catherine Snedeker, Ann Faldetta, and Bob Pelham. Bill Margolin wore 2 hats representing ABOT and The Kiwanis Club. Jim Gentile stopped by and our own Okja Choi ran the 5K race.

 

Sincere thanks goes to Jerry Quinn for opening up The Kells and saving everyone from the monsoon. Although the scene in The Kells was quite chaotic, I really feel that our table and our members lent order to the chaos. We had the best spot, gave out candy; we had balloons and we had our Director golf shirts on. I am looking forward to more events that will give us even more visibility.
