Bob Byrnes Honored as NJTFOA "Official of the Year
Bob Byrnes, was honored as "Official of the Year" at NJTFOA annual dinner on October 15, 2008. Northwest Chapter's Paul Williams served as the evening's master of ceremonies and Bob was presented his award by current Northwest Chapter President, Scott Noonan. In his presentation, Scott cited Bob's more than 30 years as an official and former coach at Dover High School. As Scott noted, "It's hard to go to a big meet and not find Bob there working as either the clerk or as the meet referee." At the Chapter level, Bob has served as a State Board Rep and as Northwest's Cadet Supervisor.
Congratulations, Bob, on your well deserved honor!
