For example, just this morning, I had the pleasure to meet with Mike Feola, the President of First Community Bank, located on Main Street – a great man who was born and raised in Buckhannon, his hospitality and support were amazing.
However, one of the interesting moments of our visit, was to learn that his cousin, David Feola, who owns and operates a Floral Shop in town, coached two of my best friends, Jeff Burkhamer and Glenn Gutierrez of Williamstown, West Virginia. Jeff and Glenn were coached by Dave at Williamstown High School.
As well, as you might have it, Dave played basketball at West Virginia Wesleyan and is a 1969 graduate. Although, he has not been to a game in over 15 years, but he promised me that not only would he come to some games this season, but that he would also become a loyal Bobcat fan once again.
Our goal of winning one fan at time is really starting to multiply – this has been a great week already for Bobcat Basketball, as we have begun the process of generating excitement and enthusiasm for the coming season!
