Breeze's Inaugural Memorial Day BBQ
Thanks to everyone for coming out to our Inaugural Memorial Day BBQ! There was more than enough food and drink for all to enjoy, games were set up in the back yard for everyone's entertainment, Jeff showed off his skills and gave lessons on his Uni-Cycle, Dennis came dressed (uniformed) out in support of our troops, while everyone else enjoyed the pool, chatted with other party attendees and made new friends.
We had a good mix of attendees: Sunday Bladers, SkateTampa Skaters, Tampa Bay Troop Support Members (www.tampabaytroopsupport.com), and folks from the Krewe of Agustina (www.kreweofagustina.org).
We are already thinking about and making plans for next year. If you have any suggestions, please send them our way (thebreeze@skatetampa.com)!
More importantly, I would like to take this opportunity to personally express my gratitude to everyone for their support over the years I was deployed. It was your packages, emails, thoughts and prayers that helped me through these challenging times. Now that this is all behind us, it's my turn to get back into the Community and experience what Freedome is all about...... right here in the Good Old USA. Thank You!
