Topic: Reno M&G Request for Special Olympian

Hay All! I am Street Teaming hard for the Reno show.  I have e-mailed Eric a M&G request for a big fan of Joes that is a Special Olympian, recognized as SO Maui Athlete of the year 2012 for his good sportsmanship & positive attitude.
Ryan Behn also brings that same quality to his community volunteering at a local senior center serving lunch. Ryan is a huge Joe B fan as is his Dad.
I have asked Eric to count any of my ST efforts towards the M&G for Ryan & is Family.  They are flying over to Reno from their home in Hawaii for the April 29th concert, which is also Ryan's Birthday, as a surprise for him.
The M&G will be the icing on the cake!
Asking all you Bona Buddies to put in your two cents on this and build some Grass Root support.

His folks, Libby & Rich, understand it's not a done deal until Eric contacts them, but they were very happy to have the effort made on Ryan's behalf.

Thanks are not enough!

Such a great gesture by you. How many meet and greets are you looking for?

Thanks for your interest!  3 M&G's so Ryan can be accompanied by his parents.  His Mom, Libby said that Ryan has a wealth of knowledge about Blues and musicians, so I would bet that Joe would enjoy talking w Ryan too.
Be well! Tahoe Jo

good to hear from you Tahoe Jo. i would suggest that if they don't hear from Eric to write back etc. sometimes things don't get to him and/or some days are busier than others. they ought to be able to give a definite yes or no but it may take a few emails.
I hope he gets it, good sportsmanship and positive attitude are excellent qualities!

Thanks for the tip & support Jane! LOVE the car as your Avatar.  I am a devoted fan of muscle cars! Making a point to get to the library more often to check on the thread.  Hope all is well w you!

We are so excited to celebrate his birthday at the concert!  The M&G would be awesome but we haven't heard back.

Re: Reno M&G Request for Special Olympian

Still hoping there is a change for the M&G to happen for our son!!!  Concert is one week away!  We are so stoked!!!

Re: Reno M&G Request for Special Olympian

Mahalo for your input!  I am brand new to this forum and not sure how to reach eric.  Will keep trying!  Thank you so much for your kindness.

Aloha.  LIbby

good luck


Thank you so much for your help and guidance.  I did send him an email a few days ago.  Still hopeful!!!

Try calling him  954/428-4440.  Hard to get the office folks to pick up but worth a try.  Leave an urgent message and he may return the call.
