6 BSR Gordy Ewell Gives the Nat'l VA Secretary a handshake. (a BSR Pin was in my palm for him, and he liked it).
7 The SLCVA Associate Director Brian Westfield, drew the short straw and had to sit by Gordy. They were able to share a few laughs however.
8 Terra and the Manager of the SLCVA Volunteer Services, Belinda Karabatsos, always smiling and planning for our veterans.
9 BSR's Gordy and Terra get OEF/OIF Manager and Outreach Coordinator, Janalee Green, to stop running long enough to take a photo. She is always on the go to help our veterans.
10 Terra and OEF/OIF Manager Maria Fruin stop talking about veteran issues long enough for a photo.
11 Local Veterans Employment Representative Fred Hamilton is always looking sharp. I keep telling him that too, because I think I am going to need a job (ha, ha).
12 Terra takes a moment to harass a security agent. They all say they hate their picture taken, but who could resist one with Terra.
