Next Tuesday, Sept 10th we are back at the Marriott.  JD has arranged a wonderful speaker and friend of mine, Terry Pettit.
Terry Pettit is a retired volleyball coach. He was the head women's volleyball coach at Nebraska from 1977 to 1999, where he led the Cornhuskers to the school's first NCAA national championship in 1995 by defeating Texas in the final. He led the team to 21 Big Eight and Big 12 conference championships in his 23 seasons as head coach and established Nebraska as one of the most decorated programs in the sport of volleyball.
 
TITLE OF HIS TALK:  An Inside View of College Athletics
 
Books:  He will bring a few books for sale.  Price is $20 cash (no credit cards).
 
He has authored three books, two on leadership and coaching and one book of selected poems, while he continues to mentor college coaches. He hosts the podcast "Inside the Coaching Mind with Terry Pettit," produced by Learfield Sport, which is among the top three percent of the nation's podcasts. He also works with small businesses and corporations on leadership and team building and helps universities hire coaches.
 
Should be a great program to bring a guest.
 

October 8th is our Annual Alumni Lunch!  Take a look at the list of Foothills Alums to see if there  are folks you can reach out to and invite.  Lists will be on the tables each week.

 

Thank you for all you do!

In Gratitude,

Wynn
