Roger Burk receives the Twelfth Man Award

Roger was invited to attend the Granite Bay High School Varsity Football Banquet on December 18, 2009. Head Coach Ernie Cooper recognized many support persons, then announced a special award to be given. Roger was awarded the 12th Man Award for taping the game films for 14 seasons, ever since the school started. "Roger filmed almost every game -- what a commitment. His two youngest sons were on the first team, but he kept on filming." He was also on the interview committee which hired Coach Cooper. "He threw me a question which caught me by surprise. 'What will you do to pull the team together?' I thought fast and replied, 'We'll hold team barbecues.' That began the tradition of the annual barbecues with parents."
