Many thanks for Softball Success
It started as an idea to goof off with our friends on a weekend.
It ended as an event I’ll never forget.
Our softball showdown for autism turned into a great success, thanks to many generous people. It was a pleasure meeting so many of you and hearing your personal stories. Unfortunately, I was so busy I didn’t get to spend much time with the folks I met, but it was great to put faces with names.
Obviously, Brady was our motivation to put the tournament on, and the Bradster enjoyed himself! He smiled, hugged random women (i knew he was a playa-haha) and even threw out the 1st pitch. I hope if you were at the tournament you got to meet Brady, in between his autograph signings!.
I am so proud, not only of our champion NBC 4 team, but of all the players who took time on a Sunday to give us a hand. Without the players, this event doesn’t happen.
Organizing this tournament, I learned just how many good friends we have here. The guys from 10tv, ABC6 and QFM96 were AMAZING. They responded when I called and just got behind the effort. I’m honored to know them and thankful that so many good people work in our business.
But the reponse from NBC4 was amazing. Most of our staff came out to play, watch or help with the games. Our people are a family, and it’s great to see the whole station pull together. We had so much fun we couldn’t stand it!
Thanks for helping make the Softball Showdown for autism a success-and we will bring it back. I just need your suggestions on things to fix and improve for next year.
Thanks again and I’ll soon include photos.
