I would like to personally thank the following people for making this weekend so successful: The Gridiron leaders for their efforts behind the scenes: Clarence Glenn, Antonio Bourgeios, Lee and Mary Beth Carrier, Ryan Poisso, Kevin Guilbeau and Troy Gisclair. A huge thanks also goes out to the former players that stepped up on Saturday to help serve the team.
