Katrina Greenhill noted, “This event was breathtaking and just awesome. The support of Coach, Scott, Ron, and Andy meant so much to us. A very special moment for me was when I stood up and looked over the huge crowd of RTAs and their guests, many of whom attended from all parts of the country, and realized they depend upon us as their leaders for support and success. It is a responsibility that we take very seriously as leaders of our team.”

Andy Cauthen enthused, “All of it was great: the Friday training skits; the Friday night business presentation given by Melissa and Chaurice – one of the BEST I have ever seen!; RTAs Carol and Stephanie’s kick off song; Saturday’s event – all day – a motivating and learning experience; the 3 CEOs; the Ladies of Team Vision; the Saturday evening singing group – fabulous!; and the special awards ceremony Saturday night!
