Volunteer Spotlight
Updated: May 16
Today, I want to take a moment to applaud the incredible people I get to work with in our community. Specifically, I want to recognize the hard work of the volunteer committee behind the 2024 NFL Alumni (NFLA) Super Bowl of Golf Qualifier, which benefited nonprofits Caring for Kids, Morgan’s, Eva’s Heroes, and New Beginnings Children’s Home.
Without the support of each of these committee advocates, the “Draft Pick” Party and Golf Tournament would have been lacking in many ways. They were the glue holding this wonderful event together. Under the leadership of NFLA Austin & South Texas President, Johnny “Sky” Walker, and Truist Co-Chair, Ben Pressentin, we joined together to provide needed support for children in our community.
We are incredibly grateful to have had Whataburger as our top sponsor this year along with all of our additional sponsors! With original country music by Marcy Grace to welcome our guests, Mariachis to showcase our San Antonio music scene, good food provided by JW Marriott Hill Country Resort & Spa, and The Oaks course at TPC San Antonio, it was certainly guaranteed to be a success.
To my new and old friends who comprised this amazing committee, I am humbled to have worked with you. Danny Wilson (NFLA), Corey Mowen, Liesl Schuh, Christiane Garcia (and Eva’s Heroes staff), Veronica Jaime, Aquila Mendez-Valdez, Awilda Ronemous, Tina Hall, Sandy Saks, Rico Riojas, David Jaime, Heather Wedige, and Christina Martinez … you should be very proud of what we accomplished together as a team. Thank you to our spouses and children for putting up with us for the last ten months.
It was fun! It was exhausting! It was rewarding! It was worth every meeting, every moment of doubt, every ounce of sweat for the cause of helping persons with disabilities and those in need. Congratulations to you, my friends!
