Dr. Julie Leeth, Becky Oakes, and Greg Stephenson

In this fun episode we learned from former Executive Director of the Missouri Sports High School Activities Association, and retired National Federation administrator, Becky Oakes how YOU can be involved as a team host at this years Show Me Showdowns in March. Listen to the details she gives and call the Springfield Sports Commission to apply!

We kept Becky around and spoke with her, Greg Stephenson, and Dr. Julie Leeth about the new local mentoring program they are involved in called CHAMPS. We learned about the mission, vision, logistics and explored how important it is to have a mentor and even more important to BE a mentor.

Next week, we are going to make an obvious statement. We are going to talk about how athletes make the best employees to hire and to prove it we are going to speak with three highly successful business executives. Joe Turner from Great Southern Bank will be here! Along with Missouri State University professor and retired Springfield-Greene County Parks Director Jodie Adams, and owner of Creator Designs and Creator Delights Dwain Banner. Wednesday, February 20, 2019 from 6:00-7:00pm on JOCK 98.7FM.
