Bonners Ferry SWISH reins officially handed
over

Anita Woods
and Brett Brown present a check to this
year's Bonners Ferry SWISH organizer,
Rotary member Ron Sukenik. |
There doesn't appear to be any lack of
enthusiasm when you hear from Ron Sukenik, who
has taken charge of the new SWISH with a
vengence.
He is gathering information and making
assignments to ensure a smooth transition from
the Bonners Ferry SWISH organization to Bonners
Ferry Rotary.
The Rotary was requested to strongly consider
this merger because the former organization felt
that Rotary was the best resource in the
community to take on the challenges of the 3 on
3 basketball tournament. They also were
comfortable knowing that Rotary would deliver
the finished product and that funds realized
from this event would be going back to the
community.
Brett Brown and Anita Woods made it official at
the meeting on April 19 by presenting a check to
Rotary in the amount of $6,995.47, representing
the proceeds from the first three years of the
tournament.
Since 2008, the event that started under the
leadership of Brett Brown, and was carried
forward last year by Brad Holifield. In 2010,
the event drew more than 300 players from the
Inland Northwest including Canada.
Brochures and the registration packet for the
July 16-17, 2011, SWISH can be accessed through
the event's website,
