Wins and losses will take care of themselves, and the records will fade into oblivion, but the lessons learned here will carry on with your son(s). They will shape your son, your grandchildren, and greatgrandchildren. Lessons of hard work, hard knocks, euphoric victories and soul crushing defeats will make them better people. I am extremely excited to start this process and I hope when you leave here you are excited to see the process begin. Farewell and Air time… • Thank you and I look forward to seeing you this season…If you have any questions related to meals contact Gayle Aspenson. Any other questions can be directed to me.
