It was a pleasure to take part at the WKU's Toys for Tots Tournament at the Chateau Resort in the Poconos today. The event was great. It was awesome to run into all the people I love, admire and respect including Master Bridget, Master Stephanie, Justine Wollman, Pat and Josh, etc.
The Christmas spirit was around us, everybody was in the spirit of giving and Sandokan donated a Japanese sword set to the winner of a raffle drawing. The Chateau was beautifully decorated with lighted 10 to 12 foot Christmas trees and Santa even visited for the kids. Once Santa took a break, Heide and I decided to keep his seat warm. (I am sure the jolly old man would appreciate it with his old bones).
The spectators and competitors were wonderful, including members of the Marine Corps who took part in this event. Special thanks of gratitude to the Tasetano family for being dedicated to this charitable event people and for being marines! Congratulations to all the competitors and kudos to moms and dads, family and friends who support them and together have helped this worthy cause, after all that is what it is about.
