Meet SAM:
The Woman Behind The Camera…
…Part Two!
Left - I attended many Charlotte Checkers Hockey Games while growing up and I still love Hockey to this day! This is me with Their Mascot Chubby (Notice The Old School Colors: Orange & Blue)! I had a Stuffed Chubby (that I still own to this day believe it or not) that I used to carry around with me everywhere. I also still have a few Pucks from when The Checkers would Practice on the Ice before their Games since we got to our Seats Early as Season Ticket Holders.

Middle - One of My Grandma's Favorite Memories with me are all the times I spent with her, My Grandpa, and My Great-Grandmother at The Lake. I always had so much fun helping My Grandpa drive The Pontoon Boat!
Right - One of James J. Shaffer's Favorite Memories with me is when I attended My First Scottish Highland Games Event and he convinced me to be in the Parade of Tartans with him. J.J. recalls me not being excited about going at first...But I ended up having a great time! So much so that I fell asleep before we even got out of the Parking Lot to leave.
Left - If I remember correctly....I'm pretty sure this Photo was taken in Charleston, South Carolina. I've just always loved this Photo! * Photo Taken By: James J. Shaffer *
Middle - I was a Wildcats Cheerleader for The Boys & Girls Club when I was in Fifth Grade. I enjoyed cheering...But I was afraid to try out for Cheerleading in Middle School and High School so I never did. I did what I did best...& That was study. I've always done well in School. I used to be pretty shy. I Played The Flute in Seventh & Eighth Grade while I was in Middle School. I wasn't Athletic or into Physical Activity of any sort whatsoever. I actually couldn't stand Gym Class...Even through College!
Right - One of My Mom's Favorite Memories with me is when we went to Kings Mountain. My Mom loved the combination of history & hiking but I was not a fan of either due to my young age (I enjoy both now), so while she leisurely walked the one mile around & read the signs, I would RUN from bench to bench (which still cracks her up to this day) to wait for her!
