- Tony Dungy
March 13, 2008
Tydings Auditorium, Hobbs High School
Head Coach, 2007 Super Bowl Champion Indianapolis Colts
Tony Dungy
The first African-American head coach to lead his team to a Super Bowl championship, his path to success was forged by his uncompromising integrity, faith and unflappable personal style. Dungy leads by example, as a family man and an inspired volunteer for national charities. Despite the demands of a high-profile coaching career, he keeps his family and his faith on top of his priority list. Dungy shares his understanding of how service, sacrifice, and balance result in priceless gains not always measured by scoreboards or bottom lines.

Waddie Mitchell
From his earliest days on the remote Nevada ranches where his father worked, Waddie was immersed in the cowboy way of entertaining, the art of spinning tales in rhyme and meter that came to be called cowboy poetry. Within his stories are the common bonds we all share, moments both grand and commonplace, the humorous and the tragic, the life and death struggles and triumphs that we each recognize. Waddie presents his material with personal insights and the lessons learned during his life spent as a buckaroo.
