Tie Watch Enters 2009
Coach Dave Rhyde was resplendent in a tie covered with Disney characters (donated by Dr. Ray & Ellen Meeks) when his Emerald Knights downed Sherburne-Earlville at home last night.
It is easy to see he enjoys the outstanding support the community is showing for the unique fundraising project created by Dr. Dave Haswell. Rhyde said he received a $50 contribution from a patient of Haswell’s who had read about it and was pleased that her doctor was involved.
As of today, there are nine ties in the TBW (To Be Worn) que. Rhyde said he knows one is a bow tie and one is a boy’s clip-on that may be a bit small. It takes a man confident in his own style to laugh in the face of a clip-on and forge ahead. Next stop: GQ!
