JUNE ACITIVITY NIGHT (Chairman Lindsay Luxton) - for those of you who did not attend the meeting on June 18th we had a really good speaker. June was Publicity month and Lindsay’s program was for the Girl’s Athletics’, at Mooseheart. Her speaker was Steve Behr – the Sports Editor of the Watauga Democrat. Steve was very nervous at first, it was cute, but once he got going he did a really good job. Steve shared some inside scoop on the ASU/Michigan Football game and told us some stories about Coach Jerry Moore and how sometimes they would have to do some damage control with the stories. Steve told us a little bit about the good parts of his job, along with the bad which included long hours and sometimes loneliness – this was not a job for someone who was married. He made it fun and yet interesting. Thanks Lindsay and Steve for an awesome program.
