Annika Murray, girl age U-16 from Salem Lodge #305
They all reported they had a great time and it was fun. We competed against 5 other states which were Kentucky, West Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland,Delaware,DC. Ohio came in at 4th place overall. The banquet and award program was great and we can't wait to go again next year.
I thank all of the district Chairman for all they do to help continue to make this a successful program each year. I am giving a special THANKS to Doug Kohli District Chairman of the South Central District for his over 20 years of service as Chairman, he is stepping down as Chairman. He has done a fantastic job and it has been a pleasure working with him.He has always had the best interest of the kids front and center. He exemplifies all of the best qualities of the Elks Best People On Earth. The new Chairman of the South Central Will be Howard Honaker who I 'm suer will do a great job. Welcome aboard.
Finally I ask all lodges to hold a soccer shoot so more kids have the opportunity to go to the Mid-Atlantic Regional representing Ohio and having fun.
If you are going to the April Convention please come to the Soccer Seminar so you can see how to put a shoot on. The District Chairman are available to help.

PDDGER Ohio State Soccer Chairman
