THIS WEEK’S SPEAKERs

Jim Mulvaney introduced both of today’s guest speakers-

1)     First was Vince Mud ( President of Big Brothers and Sisters)- who we’ve all met before, gave a great description and summary of the Big brothers and Sisters program here in San Diego. He let us know about the success of the program  and the need for more volunteers as there are 325 kids on the waiting list. One person can make a difference!!!

Jim Brogan- Followed with a very motivating presentation on “Goals, Courage and Attitude”- Jim Brogan is a former professional basketball Player with the San Diego Clippers  and Golden State Warriors. He’s  been dedicated to developing Strong, well- rounded youth on  and off the court since 1985.Jim’s newest program “10 steps to success” is an exciting new approach in motivating young people for success in life. He says he doesn’t motivate, but,  “Inspires people to Change their condition”  and “Courage  to make great choices”. I think we were all more inspired after his presentation.
