Editor,

We have just completed hosting two basketball tournaments and are so thankful for the assistance we received throughout both weekends. The community volunteers were dedicated, our school district staff and students participated many hours, ticket takers put in countless hours, and our athletic director kept us organized and running smoothly. The coaches, referees, and workers were gracious and appreciative of our endeavors. The hospitality room was a place for workers to take a break and I thank the middle school for allowing us the space and a room for the cheerleaders to use. Cathy at Subway provided trays of sandwiches at no cost, Lennie from McDonald’s kept us in juice, cookies and breakfast treats, and Coca-Cola furnished our pop dispenser at no costs. Having law enforcement and EMTs around the clock kept us assured that emergency situations were handled appropriately. From the announcers to score table workers, and radio personnel who were there each time we thank you. I commend all who were there and showed the true spirit of a community that cares about young people. Many thanks to Lucky and Theresa, administration, and supporters of these tournaments. It makes one proud to be a part of Ronan.
