Stephanie
Brown Trafton, a resident of Galt, was honored on August 27, 2008
with a homecoming parade and reception, including free corn dogs and
fireworks. Stephanie won a gold medal in the discus in the recent
Beijing Olympics. No American woman has won gold in the sport since
1932. Hundreds people braved the summer heat to cheer
her on. Harry Leman, our current club president, was on the
program and gave Stephanie and her husband (both around 6'4"
tall) honorary memberships in our club and our "Altitude is
Everything" club t-shirts. We hope that they will join us
at one of our events once things are back to normal for them. From here, Stephanie is off to Europe for more events and has plans
to be on the Oprah Winfrey TV show. Congratulations
Stephanie! You make us all proud to be tall!!
