[QUOTE=jdw3018;666551]All great ideas. Really appreciate the thoughts from this group.
Officiating is one of those few things that is a "just dad and me" kind of activity. We've been able to call a couple games together over the years, but for the most part we've never lived close enough when I've been officiating to do it. But we talk much more often during basketball and it's always about the latest game, or a situation we saw on TV, or what's coming up on the schedule. I've always been close with my dad, but officiating has done nothing but bring us closer.
JDW,
My son and I have called a college game and a State Tournament together and both were very memorable for me. I wished that we had documented it in some fashion or other like the folks on this board has suggested. One of the members in our high school group got to go up to Oak Hill in Virginia last Sunday and call one of their games with his Dad. I believe he has requested video.
I encourage you to go way, way out of your way to memoralize this milestone. Who knows when, or if, he'll make it back.
