Parent-Child Weekend Parent

“[My son] and I had an *awesome* time at the Parent/Child Sports Broadcasting Weekend. It is an experience I will always cherish and will never forget, and I think the same holds true for [my son]. As far as him and I interacting on camera, that was a new things for us to do together – it was challenging and so much fun!”
