SEASON WRAP UP - '07/'08
As we head into this off season, I want to take the opportunity to congratulate and thank our players, coaches, parents, and volunteers. The 07/08 season was another strong year for our Willow Glen Chapter. This is a result of the talents, contributions, and participations of all of you. I would like to especially recognize all our volunteers. Our volunteers are the backbone and foundation of our league. THANK YOU all for your contributions. I would like to give a SHOUT OUT to our President Mike Goode. Mike put in countless hours, and his dedication to all aspects of running our Chapter really made things work. THANKS MIKE!
The goal of our chapter is to provide a positive basketball experience for all the kids in the Willow Glen Chapter, across all ages and competitive levels. Judging from the results, I think it is fair to say mission accomplished. While I am thanking people, I would like to include all the parents in our Chapter for your support. Our Chapter is a community, and you are a key part. Thank you for your participation. Hope to see you all back next year!
