EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS

ENDURANCE SPORTS AWARDS

Sea World, San Diego - February 2, 2008

 

The winners of the Swimathon fund raiser, along with the kids who
weren't able to go to the Challenged Athletes Foundation race last
November because of the fires in San Diego, at the annual
Endurance Sports Awards banquet at Sea World.

Once again, the kids were hosted overnight by

(Keith supplied us with brand new wetsuits last year.)

 

 

Robert and Mary Ann, parents of the deeply missed
Jon "Blazeman" Blais,
who completed the Ironman World Championships after
being diagnosed with ALS

 

Josh displays two of the eight giant dolphins the kids snagged
in games of skill before the banquet.

 

Hard to believe they scored more schwag than last year,
but they did.

 

Our very own table
(just before we took those champagne bottles away)

 

Hard working and hard partying

 

 

And this greeted us the next day on the way home.

 

A splendid time was had by all!
