On Wednesday, December 21st, at the Bala Golf Club, you came out for another fantastic luncheon that we are called"Author Day."
We had three different authors with us live that afternoon. Member Jerry Blavat, the Geator with the Heater, talked about his new book, "You Only Rock Once." Also on the big show was member Al Meltzer (often called "Big Al"). He discussed his latest book called, "50 Years of Adventures in Sports Broadcasting." Also, speaking that day was author Alan Boris whose book "Philadelphia Radio" came out earlier this year. Our Chairman of the Board Gerry Wilkinson wrote the preface for it.
