Re: Bob returns

*Malaska - *You are right, Huggins has not been involved in the past but
there were various reasons, mostly on Shining Star's side, and the fact the
development of the game was in its infancy. Also the timing of the game was
during the recruiting period for college coaches so Huggs was always on the
road. This year the Alumni game is in August.

Meacham asked Huggs months ago for his direct support this year and he
quickly volunteered. Last year, Chuck Machock and Corie Blount sat on the
bench.

*Marshall*  - thanks for your 'free ad' in your other note. Your support in
the past for the event was important to get the event off the ground early
and allow us to reach our "5th Annual".
