SPEAKER - FRANK CULLY
Frank delivered a VERY informative presentation on how we can access the many benefits of our Club Runner software and I-phone ap.
EXEMPTION BADGE: FRED DONATI
In his traditional spell-binding style, Fred described his attending the Thanksgiving Weekend Football Classic in 1964 featuring the "Fighting Irish" of Notre Dame (Fred's alma mater) vs. the USC "Trojans". In that year, the Fighting Irish were #1 in the NATION with a perfect 9 win/0 loss record and were heavy favorites to beat the 7/4 Trojans.
The halftime score favored the Irish at 17 to ZERO! But at the end of the game, the Trojans came from far behind in points to WIN the game 17 to 23!
AND THIS YEAR's GAME PROMISES TO BE JUST AS EXCITING, with Notre Dame again favored, bringing to the game a perfect 11/0 record and hoping for a post season Bowl Game bid which hangs in the balance.
ANOTHER GREAT E.B. PRESENTATION>>>>THANK YOU FRED!!!
