Proceeds of this book will go to help the Marcus Institute and its mission of "Turning Disabilities into Possibilities".

2008 – In March, a serious tornado ripped through the heart of downtown Atlanta, causing severe damage to the Georgia World Congress Center and several downtown hotels. Big South Volleyball, an annual Atlanta event, was headed to town one week later and was faced with finding new locations for 115 volleyball courts and 20,000 participants…and also a way to get everyone to where they needed to be. We swung into action, scouring the city for every last possible location and putting together what the client termed “an impossibly massive transportation plan at the very last minute” that included stops at 7 different locations scattered throughout every corner the city. And, oh by the way...it was Easter weekend on top of it all!
