Thank you, Juneau Sports Association

I would like to thank the Juneau Sports Association (JSA), specifically Traci Gilmour and the JSA board, for giving recognition to myself, Gary Lewis and John Boucher as “pioneers” for our part in defining the association 25 years ago.

Personally, I had a selfish reason for being involved … I wanted to continue to play softball. I sincerely hope that current softball players are having as much fun now as I did then.

Thanks again, Traci.

M. Sue McGowan,

Juneau
