This year’s SCMAF’s Annual Awards and Installation Banquet was held at
the Toyota USA Automobile Museum in Torrance. The theme of the banquet
was “Honoring the Past. Leading the Future” to signify this year’s goal of the
Executive Board to work aggressively to strengthen itself as a viable and
pertinent organization, both to recreational professionals and sports
participants in 2012. After guests checked in, they had time to tour the main
hall of the Toyota USA Automobile Museum or socialize with one another in
the banquet area.
The evening began with a brief
welcome from Torrance City Council
Member Gene Barnett. Gene thanked
the audience supporting their
communities and to keep up the good
work. Next the Master of Ceremonies,
Scott Williamson, introduced Katie
Parkinson who sang the National
Anthem. After the anthem Scott then
introduced outgoing SCMAF President
Carlos Espinosa who went on to praise
2012 SCMAF Board of Directors
SCMAF for its 62 years of service to the southern California community and
how this banquet recognizes SCMAF’s members and agencies who have gone
above and beyond their commitment to SCMAF.
Carlos spoke of SCMAF’s service to the community and of the federation’s
rich history which was sitting in the audience. Carlos took time to recognize the
Past President of SCMAF in the audience. He then thanked the 2011
Association Officers and SCMAF staff in attendance and everyone during the
past year that helped contribute to SCMAF’s success which included
contributions from the following sponsors: Diamond Sports, Events by Noonan,
Hirsch and Associates, Inc., Innovative

Once again at the banquet, the SCMAF Student Scholarship was awarded this time to three deserving
students. Along with membership donations from various 50/50 raffles throughout the year, SCMAF
joined with the Guerrero Family to provide for these scholarships . The Guerrero Family works
diligently to generate funds for this scholarship fund, named in honor of their late wife and mother,
Margret Guerrero. This year’s recipients included Yanelle Ceniceros from California State University,
Rebecca Hutchins of Azusa Pacific University and Ethan Machado of California State University at
Long Beach. Congratulations to Yanelle, Rebecca and Ethan.
