"...You were a funny and consummate professional
Master of Ceremonies and Auctioneer, but it was all
the added-value bonuses you brought to our organization
that really impressed us. When Susan Harrison
at American Golf Corporation suggested we hire you
we thought, ' do we really need an MC?' But
from our first conversation with you a full 6 months
before our event, it was obvious you were a hands-on
guy with much experience to offer our event and
whether we needed you for a luncheon meeting or numerous
phone calls, you were there to share your contacts,
know-how and advice. On tournament day, it was
nice to lean on you. Your 'Mulligan Man' idea was
a big hit! Playing one hole with every group
was a nice twist and you helped a number of foursomes
with your play. That really is a terrific
idea, much better than just putting you with one group.
I couldn't believe that night how many people
treated you as an 'old buddy' after playing one hole
of golf with everyone. You really remember names,
make friends easily and have a knack of making people
feel comfortable. With
all this said, it was really in front of the microphone
that evening where your skills and experience shined.
Your sense of humor and timing kept the auction
and raffle moving. It was also very heads-up
of you to get those people at the bar to quiet down
during our speakers' presentations. It seems
just a gentle word or two from you and the decibel
level dropped considerably. By the way, please
also thank the Dodgers for the hats, beach towels
and autographed baseballs. You were right; they
helped sell raffle tickets and earned good money at
the auction.
Eric, it's true, experience really does make a difference.
Thank
you for lending yours to our event. We look
forward to your involvement again...."
