Kia Motors Presents the Trail Blazers Summer Tour ’08: Burns

Our third day of the tour started with a hot & hearty continental breakfast in Burns, Oregon.

Under the impression that our clinic would be on a half-court outside of a Boys & Girls Club, we were relieved to find that we had been relocated to Slater Middle School. Jerome and Duck visited with special needs kids in the classroom while Lisa, Dick and I warmed up the campers with a game of knockout. With 45 kids on hand, the clinic was a little more controllable than in days prior.

After the clinic it was off to lunch where we received top-notch treatment.

Next was a stop at a double-wide trailer which housed KZZR 1230 AM. While we were there, we made a radio host cry with excitement when we gave her an autographed basketball, Brittany and Lisa received a horse and carriage ride from a couple from 'Colorada,' and Duck caught the interviewer so off-guard she was speechless for about five seconds.

Before we headed out of town, we stopped at the Boys & Girls Club for Teen Night. Brit bowled a turkey on the Wii, Lisa lost to a 5-year-old at a game of pool and Jerome and I shot hoops outside with the adults who ran the clinic.

Now we're off to John Day (population 1,000) to wrap up our four-day eastern Oregon exhibition.
