Coach Z regains the floor and explains that this is a LIP, CHIP and SIP meeting, talk, eat chips and sip water. However, he was advised by his special lady to try Ray's donuts, the best in the city. He fell for it and bought 5 dozens, one each for each attendee.

They loved them!!!

Then Coach Z introduced the group dynamic, a grab bag exercise in which the participant would grab a bag, but could not open but could trade, sell or keep. Once opened they must keep the contents.

Very little trading, most kept their bagged item.

After the grab bag exercise head coaches were to find their handbook with no name on it.

It was time for the formal session. Coach Z discussed the philosophy of the organization, starting with the concept of CADRE

Thank you awards were issued to each head coach.
