We had a great clinic on May 30 to end the Spring 2009 season. Thanks to Ricky Ragan, Matt Williams, Michael Cholewa, Vincent Coker, & Elaine Farrell, with a special guest appearence by Eric Edwards, for making the day flow so smoothly.
And that was not necessarily an easy thing to do. When we arrived, construction on the new Gardendale High School building adjacent to the lot we use had caused traffic from the road that divides the two to be diverted onto the space we normally use. We were able to work around that, but all day long, people kept trying to short-cut the detour and drove around construction pylons, barrells, and barrier tape onto the pavement we were using!
Ultimately, all went well; the kids had a great time, some even admitting that initially they did not want to come, but were delighted that they had. And, as usual, the transformation in their driving skills from the beginning of the day until the end was simply amazing!
I would like to personally thank each and every one of you who worked to make the Spring 2009 clinic a reality. We tried some new things, and most of it worked out for the better. But the amazing thing is that you guys (and girls) who devoted your time found out that the NDCCC is a labor of love. Nobody ever promised you it would be easy, or convenient, but you continued to work anyway, simply because of what the clinics mean for these kids and for ALSCCA.
Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Now let's get busy planning the Fall 2009 season!!!
