EKCC DINNER AND BEST OF KINGS AWARDS

I got invited out to the EKCC dinner last night so i dusted off my suit jacket and headed out. I have to tell you I have put on more than a couple of pounds since I had it on last! It was a lot of fun, and the Old Orchard in always has good food!

A Pic of my because I don't dress up often.

This is Sara Keddy, and she is the big cheese at the local papers (Register(s), Advertiser), and she never gets to be the star, so here's to Sara who makes all radio people look good and without you no one would know what we look like. You are inside the community so we can be inside the community and your papers are at the pulse of local happenings. Every week you can always count on a solid performance of Sara and her team of staff reporters.

Here was the sweet heart moment of the night. The MC Peter Muttart asked if anyone had ever heard of Johnny Burger before. Everyone at my table raised their hand. These guys are really good guys and the biggest and best thing for me is that everything that you put in your mouth from Johnny Burger is 100% made of valley products.
