part of the two-hour registration
session was making sure they

attend the event, put up $60 of his:

event. Most participants, though,
didn’t think of his donation in

terms of dollars and cents. For

confidence reflecting their worth in
the community.
As a result there wasn’t a pool
. competition, ages 17-19, during
this most recent fournament.
Instead, the "Frank Vercammen
Division" was added to the day’s
