Volunteering pays off

I spend my Saturdays during from October to March calling games as a volunteer for the local Boys and Girls Club. My 7th grade son (you know the type, jr. high today and graduate school tomorrow) regularly asks me during the season why I work for "free" on Saturdays when I could be getting paid at one of the other wreck league venues around town.

My answer to his question comes tonight...one of the board members who has always thanked me for helping out gave me 2 tickets to their big fundraiser dinner tonight and the guest speaker is Coach Roy Williams. Now, I'm no Tar Heels fan...but my son is, so I can't wait to pick him up from school this afternoon and tell him what we're doing tonight!

Maybe this will teach him a valuable lesson, but honestly...I'm not going to hold my breath!
