I would like to give a Big Community Thank You to the Bakersfield Condor Booster Club, Coach Marty Raymond and the Bakersfield Condors for their hospitality at a recent Booster club meeting earlier this month.  I had the privilege  to address the club regarding a truly courageous and wonderful young man named James Liles.  James Liles is a 14 year old Freshman at Liberty High School who starred on the Liberty High School Frosh/Soph football team this past season.  James came down with a serious form of cancer to which he is currently undergoing intense chemotherapy at UCLA Medical Center.  James is battling this cancer with the intensity as if he was on the field.  As I addressed the Condor Booster Club, I felt as if I was a part of them.  I would just like to commend the Bakersfield Condor organization for having such a class group of citizens that makes me feel proud to be from Bakersfield.
