ESPN ADA Sponsor Summit


June 26, 2007


Wow, what an exciting event that was held in Chicago, IL, on this day. I was very excited to be there at the ESPN Zone as this was a cool place to speak at. For me, as I like to play sports, especially tennis, it was very interesting and neat to see the ESPN Zone in Chicago as I had not been there in a while, actually since I was a kid. I also liked speaking there.

When I got into the ESPN Zone, the bottom floor were tables, with some breakfast foods, and beverages. There was also a TV desk, so we got to go in there, and take pictures. The top floor was where all of the games were and the room where I spoke in. During this event in the morning, the Zone was closed to the public, and so when I spoke in the room there were all different kinds of facts on the numerous TV's, and a huge screen for pictures and slideshows. I spoke in front of many sponsors of the ADA, encouraging them about what we need in the ADA and how we can use their help for the better success of the ADA.

Overall, the event was a success. So, I send out my thanks to the staff who put this event together in Chicago! Thank you!

Remember, become an advocate!
