From Erik Ackerson:
As our annual event draws near, we as always are very pleased to welcome members of our CASI family from the States, to the Sunny beachs of St Thomas.
For the past four years,as part of its Grand Prize awards package, the Cow town Pod has provided round trip airfare to participate in our Virgin Pod cook-off as part of the winners prize package.
We in turn provide a hotel room (on the beach) and a chili tent, as well a cold adult beverage as they disembark the plane as is our tradition.
This years winner is Dr. Ray Calhoun – Waxahachie. The Virgin Pod in order to provide the perfect cook-off experience for our guest who has special travel challenges, contacted one of our primary beneficiaries; Dial A Ride, who provides specialized pick-up and drop-off services as well as island tours and most importantly is able to provide a wheelchair equipt for wheelchair travel on a sandy beach!
We'll be setting up a tent for our Texas neighbors on the beach just feet from the water,stay tuned to the Trails for updated photos!!
All a part of being a part of one big CASI family!!
NOTE: I want to remind you that if your are looking for something to fill your life with fun and excitment, run for the CASI board of directors. It will change your life.
It is hot here in MO. Today at noon it was already 95 with almost 100% humidity!!! Hope it's nice where ever you may be.
