Marion Harris is in the process of creating a Ryder Cup type of an event here in Carroll County. The participants have been chosen and the final details are being ironed out as I type.
Trenton Miller made the cut ✂️ and that led to a trip out to Olde Mill Golf ⛳ Resort for a quick lesson from our Head Pro, Bo Goins.
Miller stopped by our place long enough to swap a story or two, with the highlight being one about how well he can Sing. September 13th became the Hot 🔥 Topic after that.
I’ve been reading the blog posts as they come into my inbox, a lot of exciting things happening in Cavalierland!
CCMS Cavalier Football kicked off with a bang during summer conditioning and now the season has begun. The program is offering big opportunities for those who’ve shown the desire and put in the work. Says a lot when so many 12-14 years olds give up hours and days to their summer break to attend weightlifting. And for the village of parents, family, and friends that got them there, also the coaches and their staff that worked with the athletes, huge props to them as well.
Big thanks to the CCMS Athletic Director Kayla Nester for diving right in and getting our fall fundraiser going, “fill-the-calendar, pick your date to pay”. She didn’t waste any time getting the ball rolling for CCMS Athletics!
CCMS plays Thursday Aug 28 5:30pm at CCHS, followed by the CCHS JV football team. Concessions will be open, we’ll have some new Cavalier apparel available for purchase as well.
Great week for all the Cavaliers in Cavalierland, Godspeed to all! 💙🩶🤍
Thank You Ma’am !!
The term people use is having a Dog 🐕 in the Fight while others prefer having skin in the game. Either way, there is a big difference between being responsible for getting the bleachers at Tommy Thompson Field up and running versus driving down to King, North Carolina to watch your Grandson play Middle School football.
After raising three daughters, Tammy is now getting to experience the part of the game of Football that matters the most. Nothing compares to looking out on the field and thinking, that’s my Boy 👦 out there !
To compete at the highest level in a Sport nowadays, it requires a great deal of commitment from both the Coaches and the Players. It would be short sided to not mention the families on that list, so let’s not make that mistake.
Off season workouts, year around Travel Ball and time in the weight room are all parts of the process.
One subject that we have yet to tackle in regards to our Book 📖 is the amount of Softball played by these Home Town heroes prior to Coach Rick Nester taking over in 2013.
Monday morning at 11am I will have an opportunity 🙏 to visit with Mr Alvin Davidson and I believe this Proud Dad might be able to shine some light on this subject !
Already looking forward to the conversation with Gracie’s Dad 👨
August 9th has always been a special day on the Calender for us and now it will have a second reason as today will end one very bizarre weeks in our 40+ years together.
If everything goes as planned, he will make it back to Laurel Fork after a lengthy stay at Duke University Medical Center.
For those of you that reached out during the past week, God Bless You 🙏. Working on the book 📖 and the High Jump project provided a nice diversion !
