2008 Dawg Pound Reunion Observation
by:  Jodi Van Dyke
It all started on Friday, the party began,
the gathering of family, friends, and true fans.
All were there to support Scott, our musical man.
He personally couldn't be there,
but hopefully next year he can.
This year God must have had a different plan.

To connect to each other, the other people and Scott strived.
With the video stream live the party thrived.
On Saturday, awhile after I arrived,
I recited a poem to Scott through the camera showing him that my
dream also has drive.
And letting him know how his inspiration has helped me keep it alive.

A lot of waves to the camera saying hi.
A lot of people just nonchalantly walking by.
A lot of basic "Scott, I love you's" until I die.
With no further questions as to why.

There were door prizes and gift baskets brought to be won.
There was a money board and raffle that Stacey and Chrissy helped run.
People were entertained by some speaking, music, and karaoke fun.
Smiles extended when we got to talk on the phone to Mama & Papa Savols's oldest son.

Playin' drinking games, the people began to cheer,
trying to have even more fun than last year.
Talking amongst other things about the wish that Scott and Rochelle
could be here.
but the God given love felt around enabled the disappointment to
slowly disappear.

There was also a potluck of grub that we ate,
many choices to make and a lot of cake to be put on your plate.
Scott's autographed cds were available at an affordable rate
and for Scott a Dawg Pound member signed calendar earnestly awaits.

On Sunday was a little action, but unfortunately also this year's
gathering's end.
However it's just the continuation of nationwide support for Scott Savol,
our dear friend.
