Class of 2000 Presents:

Fiesta Fantastica

Students of George Brown's Sport and Event Marketing Program and the George Brown College Foundation teamed up to present Fiesta Fantastica on March 30. The fun-filled event raised thousands of dollars for student entrance awards through ticket sales, a silent auction and raffle. The Fiesta was held at the Plaza Flamingo club on College Street.

McAskile helped design George Brown's program 10 years ago, has served on its advisory committee and taught courses. "I know of no one who believes so much in young people," said Donahue of McAskile.

Donahue also read tributes to McAskile from friends and colleagues in sports and sports marketing.
