The Orlando Touchdown Club
Greetings everyone! After a terrific and fun night with ESPN's, Andrea Adelson, we are poised and ready for Stan Van Gundy on October 29! Yes, we know Coach Van Gundy as a basketball coach but he has strong opinions and a great interest in all sports! It's going to be fun having "Coach" speak to all of our members and friends.
Our club is strong on entertainment! Along with a new speaker at every meeting, Mike Bianchi and Marc Daniels are with us all season long. This makes each dinner meeting a special event with THREE wonderful personalities each time we meet!
With FOUR exceptional dinner meetings left in the season, we hope more NEW people will join our marvelous club! Beginning now, a NEW member can join for $200 and for those under 40, $180. Considering we have Stan Van Gundy and Lou Holtz coming to see us for the first time, along with club favorites; Mark Packer and Charles Davis, that's a great deal to join OUR club now! Please look to the left and click "JOIN" for more information. This is a club you'd be happy to be part of.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME AS A GUEST AND GIVE US A TRY? Our guest fee remains the same; $45 except for the Lou Holtz meeting; $75. And yes, your guest fee can be applied towards the NEW season membership rate. But clearly, the best deal is to join the club now and enjoy our next FOUR dinner meetings for one special price. Please send your RSVP to GLSineni@gmail.com. Then bring your check or cash and we'll be more than happy to welcome you at the door.
We think OUR 2018 lineup of speakers might be the best we have ever had! Here is our season schedule:
Tues, Sept. 4 Tony Barnhart Tony is always good! And he was again.
Mon, Sept. 17 Houston Nutt Coach Nutt, an analyst with CBS Sports and former coach at 'Ole Miss and Arkansas, was simply terrific in his debut with us. We were laughing and smiling all night long!
Mon, Oct. 8 Danny White It was a very special night as our club welcomed the charismatic AD from UCF to see us for the first time!
Mon, Oct. 15 Andrea Adelson, a former Gator graduate who wrote for the Orlando Sentinel and now works for ESPN. Andrea was a lot of fun to be with!
NEXT TO COME:
Mon, Oct. 29 Stan Van Gundy, former Orlando Magic coach; a Lake Mary resident who is an all around sports nut and a big fan of local schools and young people. Super inspirational, we can't wait to hear and meet Coach Van Gundy.
Mon, Nov. 12 Mark Packer, #1 personality on Sirius XM Radio, ESPNU, channel 84!!! This gentleman, besides being one of our favorite people - 9 straight appearances, has gone way out of his way to help us land other speakers. Mark is a great friend of the OTC!
Mon, Nov. 26 Lou Holtz, former Notre Dame coach and ESPN commentator. "Dr. Lou will be in the house!" There is already a buzz in town. Come Nov. 26, we know the room will be packed with club members and guests!
Mon, Dec. 3 Charles Davis, former star def. back at Univ. of TN and now with FOX Sports as a football analyst. Very few people can deliver a message as real and sincere as Charles Davis. He is the perfect speaker to end our season with.
As usual for 2018, we will honor the Orange and Seminole Co high school players of the week. The Orlando Touchdown Club loves to give these deserving young men proper recognition for what they do on the field and in the classroom.
WHO is your favorite college team? Whoever it is, you'll have some company! All Gators, Knights, 'Noles, Irish, Crimson Tide, Vols, 'Canes, Nittany Lions, Dawgs, Tigers, Wolverines and even Buckeyes are welcome at our club.
