Support for the Toast and the Team

Yesterday, the Tennessee Tribune published a really wonderful advertisement/story discussing our upcoming Toast to the Team event, the event chair Roscoe Orman, and the team itself.

You can see the whole article (through their web view of the paper) on page 6B. Better yet, get yourself a subscription of this fine publication here.

We are so greatful for their support!
