Made a stop in Pontiac Michigan at the Lafayette Grand Event Center. Cool place but old buildings are never fun to load in and out of. But the beer was cold, so we had that going for us.
We do huge events and little events. This one was a little guy on a Thursday night in Lakewood benefitting the Diabetes Association. Fun crowd and very generous.
The calm before the Lakewood Athletic Booster storm. 375 big spending Lakewood Ranger supporters showed up in full force again. This year they utilized our new “cashless betting” system which made for bigger profits and faster betting lines.
Very well organized and along with 50 raffle baskets resulted in score of over $30,000. Good job Lakewood. See ya at the next one.
Spending a Sunday with Maple Leaf Community Residences running a Day at the Races. Great turnout for a great cause. Auctioned off over $50,000 in trips around the USA. Pretty cool.
Ron Marhofer Auto Family packed in for the annual Christmas party. Company parties are a fading thing from what it was in years past. Ron Marhofer still does it BIG time. Gives his employees cash gifts at this event and the amount is stunning. Good job Ron, you’re a generous man and we appreciate you. There’s a seat in heaven next to me for you.
St. Mary of the Falls Margaritaville themed Night at the Races. Fantastic atmosphere and super fun crowd. Having a themed event can really bring in a more interested and engaged crowd. Party on.
Just getting revved up for Cardinal Mooney High Schools first ever Night at the Races in Marine City, Michigan. Great looking venue and it’s a gymnasium. Best looking gym I’ve ever been to. Should be fun.
You've seen the front and now you can see behind the scenes. It's not so glamorous for sure.
Doing a Christmas Corporate Version Night at the Races at the Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs. Pretty cool. Thats a movie screen that wraps 360 degrees. Have check will travel. Even if I will get home at 5am. LOL
I case you needed to see an empty venue in Akron, I am here to help.
Keller Williams KW Elevate Fundraiser. Raising money for employees in need and Shop-With-A-Cop for kids presents for Christmas. Great cause, great people and free beer. Very good combination.
Visited Greenville, Ohio to help raise cash and boy oh boy did they do that. Big time financial support for the Greenville High Lady Waves basketball team.
When you're 3 hours early for the gig at the Medina Moose Lodge and you have nothing else to do...you video an almost empty room. Maybe I can sneak a drink from the bar. Has to be a benefit to poor time management. LOL
Hanging out with the very fun crowd at Weymouth Country Club in support of the Highland Athletic Booster Clubs Night at the Races.
They made a boatload of cash and was glad to help them along the way to a successful evening. Thanks go to Highland High Athletic Director Nick Ranallo and all the volunteers for the effort which had a great result.
Nick Ranallo is leaving Highland after this year and moving to be the Athletic Director for Westlake High School. Best of luck Nick.
Welcome to Malvern, Ohio for the Carrollton County Chamber of Commerce Races. Crowd is just getting in and are getting primed and ready to roll. Great people and they are back after a 2 year COVID hiatus.
Mayfield Hts. Fire Department Night at the Races about to get jiggy wit’ it. They had a record crowd this year. Well, they’re not yet in the room but I had to do it while I had a minute. It got a bit crazy soon afterwards. Crowds seem to be much larger post-COVID. Hopefully all the fundraisers keep seeing success. Knock on wood.
Olmsted Falls Athletic Boosters squeezing into the St. Demetrios venue. They always represent very well.
Avon Athletic Boosters representing big time.
