On Wednesday, September 25th, the money we collect for our Out-of-Uniform for charity will go to the family of Bill Evans. Mr. Evans is an employee of Whitworth Tool and lost his home to a fire. Along with our financial donations, items needed (clothing, etc) will be taken up as well. Kim Barton has graciously agreed to pick up any donations we receive in the Main Office and place them into the right hands. Please keep this family in your prayers.

Benjamin Brown won 1st place in the WWA Wakeboard World Championship in Pleasant Prairie WI on August 14-18. He won 1st place in Jr Boys Beginner Division. He went into the semifinal round as the #1 seed which meet that he was the kid to beat from his standing from last year and this year. He had a stand up trick run and went into the final round as the #1 seed. He was the last one off the dock and had a stand up trick run landing a trick he had only landed a few times and never in competition. He thanked all of his friends and family and sponsors at the awards dinner when he gave his acceptance speech. We would like to thank all of our St Romuald friends and family for all the good luck wishes and support that our family has received during our many competitions. All the support means a lot when we are on the road so far from home.
