A huge thank you to everyone who had a hand in making the Pacer banquet such a success. Jim did a great job as MC, Kily's pictoral program was very well done, Audrey is a fine Prez, the food was good and plenty---I could go on and on, but I'll just finish by saying that it's a pleasure to be a part of such a great group. Thanks to all of you who worked on the banquet.

Thank you to all of you who participated in the silent auction and banquet last Thursday. Initial reports from the club treasurer are that we raised approximately $750 for the PBP scholarship at Southern Miss, which should push our total past the $5,500 mark. As you know, we had a few items for which we did not receive minimum bids. After discussing it with a few Pacers we felt like the best thing to do was open up bidding online for a short time prior to putting the items on e-bay. I've sent photos of the remaining items to Running Bear, who hopefully will post them shortly. All bids should be placed as a reply to this item on the forum. We will close the auction Friday at 5 p.m., when I will announce the winners. Please e-mail questions to jcoll@southernmissalumni.com.
