We will miss you, Broomfield Eagles!

Broomfield had a going-away party for Mike now that he is going to be an Assistant Principal at Angevine Middle School. It was really neat. There were 40+ people that came to wish him well and give a toast to the work he did in the past four years as Athletic Director at Broomfield High School. I documented the event with pictures of him with every coach, but for the purposes of this blog I have chosen just a few of my favorites.

Charlene Orvis is the Athletic secretary. She and Mike worked closely together, and she is absolutely amazing at her job. She is a wonderful person as well. Mike will miss working with her on a daily basis, but I know that we will stay in touch. :) I love this picture of Mike and Charlene.
I thought it was really nice that many of the other Boulder Valley Athletic Directors came to acknowledge Mike. The A.D.'s from Monarch, Fairview, and the current AND former AD's from Nederland all came. How cool!

In this picture, Gary Davies (the football coach) and Ginger Ramsay (the Principal) are saying some kind words about Mike. The school also gave Mike a really nice commemorative wall plaque thanking him for his time and service to Broomfield. It was really neat.

And at times, got a little emotional...

Broomfield is such a great school with amazing people. I know Mike will miss them dearly, and I know that we will attend Broomfield events next year to stay in touch. Obviously, Mike will be missed as well--and it was really touching that they went to the trouble of throwing a party for him. :) GO EAGLES!
