Bar Louie hosted our group, and all present enjoyed the time to gather with our NFDA friends and relax while Craig McDaniel (Nylok) and his band entertained us all! Big thanks to Craig and to all who came out on a hot June night in Dallas. This year many SFA members attended a baseball game between the Houston Astros and the World Champion Texas Rangers in Arlington! The air-conditioned stadium was a welcome relief from the Texas heat and the game proved to be a good one, although the Astros triumphed in the end. The Silver Boot series is a happy SFA tradition that is proving to be one our members really enjoy! SFA is proud to award 00 scholarships to worthy students as they pursue their undergraduate and/or graduate degrees. This year we were pleased to have over 20 applications for our scholarships! The committee awarded 5 scholarships. The following students were awarded a scholarship this year. Alex Cattoor, Emily Brandt, Josh Monteiro, Jake Heitzman and Eleonor Maturan were our recipients, and we couldn’t be happier to assist them with their education.
