Courtney & Judy Stecker are dad & mom to a beautiful boy named Wheeler.  Wheeler is 1 of 40 kids in the US who battle Battens Disease.  Because Battens is so rare, there is little funding and knowledge of the disease, but because of the Gaine Invitational there comes money and awareness so that one day Battens will be no longer.  Thank you Courtney and John for tell your story, speaking your passion about something that could not be any closer to the hearts of so many!  Nothing is impossible with love -- NOTHING!

See you guys on October 14th for the Gaine Invitational Golf Tournament that benefits Wheeler, the Stecker family, and research into this merciless disease.

MARKEL STARKS is a professional basketball player in Turkey representing the city of Izmir.  I first met Markel as an 8th grader at Mater Dei School and he impressed me form the jump.  He went on to Georgetown Prep and then to Georgetown U -- where he captained the team and racked up accolades -- and for the last 10 years Markel has  been living his dream of playing professional basketball.  Beyond the hard court, Markel has a one-of-a-kind joie de vivre that he infects, quite literally, the world over.  Markel recently got inducted into the Prep Hall Of Fame -- congrats!

Thank you, Markel, for being your beautiful self -- and telling your story; speaking your passion on the Pillars Podcast --

BE A PILLAR!


w/ love,

Billy G!

Billy Glading is an old friend, great athlete, better family-man, and entrepreneur many-times over.  His latest baby is RINGERZ – stick-bands for youth athletics.  Throw a Ringerz Stick Band on your favorite sports stick – lacrosse, baseball, softball, field hockey, tennis, hockey – and everything is more fun.  For the love of the game – express yourself as a player, trade ‘em, and have a ball!  I got the feeling stick bands are just the beginning for RINGERS!
