To get to know Yearlings better, Angela Chaney asked them what is their favorite thing to do in the summer. Answers ranged from going to the lake, to attending kids sports events, to playing golf, to having a drink and a cigar.
Duane Gross and Jim Leslie were recognized from their generosity as they received Paul Harris pins from Travis Sholin.
Receiving their official blue badge were Sean Davis and Amy Morris who have completed the Yearlings program.
Sportswriter Greg Echlin talked about his career which began as a college student when he visited Omaha for a NCAA basketball game in 1977. The free lancer worked for several radio stations, The Kansas City Star, and even the Omaha World Herald. With the advent of digital formats, he has had to pitch his stories and he does work with NPR and FlatWater Free Press. He likens his current work like that of Charles Karult, who traveled the world for stories.
