President's Message
24th Roswell Relays
Thanks to Bruce Smith, Mindy Jones, and all of you who volunteered at the 24th Roswell Relays. The day pulled off without a hitch! What a gift be among our young folks. You could feel their team spirit and competitiveness. Gauging from the smiles on the winning team, Sequoyah, it was an extremely rewarding day.
