2022-09-17 Kirkwood Night-O Results

Posted on by

What a night! We laughed, some cried, but we all had fun celebrating the legendary David Frei. After spying the international space station orbiting overhead, David gave a very heartwarming speech that was very moving. To top off the evening we got to treasure hunt in an awesome park, then spin the wheel of fortune for some tasty and not-so-tasty treats from David’s favorite’s list. Thank you to everyone who came out and special thank you to the following people who helped make it an amazing evening: Jeff and Carrie Sona, Ken and Kathie DeBeer, Jeff Ryan, Kevin Minton, Mark Geldmeier, Robert Bart, Thomas Ryan, and Bryan Niehaus just to name a few.
