When
Wyoming joined SE chapter, at first he was very shy, and when he got
to know the membership, did he take off. He got very involved with the
chapter and became an officer (Historian ). He also became very active
in Run 21, which I might add, he ran the grueling gate and what a job
he did there. That alone is a chore in itself. Hats off for you sir!
Job well done!
