Over 50 program alums joined 7 current AT Faculty members and a dozen or so VIPs to honor the work of Dr. Kent Scriber, EdD, ATC, PT at the annual alumni party during the 2015 NATA Meeting in St. Louis. The combination alumni party and retirement celebration at Mike Shannon's Steak House in St. Louis was held in a private room adorned with multiple baseball memorabilia and pieces of St. Louis sports history (fitting for Kent), and featured an open mic session for tributes, toasts and roasts, a "walk down memory lane" slideshow prepared by Clinical Assistant Professor, Sarah Piebes, MS, ATC, a special "personal letters and notes" bounded book prepared by Clinical Associate Professor, Courtney Gray, MS, ATC, and a sports memorabilia silent auction organized to raise money for the Kent Scriber AT Fund. Bomber Clinical Associate Professor Todd Lazenby, MS, ATC (San Francisco 49ers) and Bomber AT program Alums Nancy Patterson Flynn (Los Angeles Dodgers), Dan Adelman (Baltimore Ravens), Jon Lin (NY Giants), Bike Becker (NY Yankees), Pete Youngman (Sacramento Kings), Nicole Fava (UNC, Chapel Hill), and Emily Kiefer Flood (University of Florida) all generously gathered and donated signed sports items, team clothing and other collector's items for the auction to raise funds for the Scriber Fund which supports AT Education operations and development. By the end of the night, the generosity of those in attendance brought in just over $2,000 for the Scriber Fund. Most of all, it was a fitting and warm tribute to Dr. Scriber's legacy and considerable footprint both upon the field of athletic training and Ithaca College--thanks to Professor Scriber for his dedication, commitment and productivity over his 43 years as an athletic trainer, educator, administrator, adviser, mentor and utmost professional. Best wishes for a healthy, happy and active retirement from everyone affiliated with the Athletic Training Education Program! You will be missed...
