10: Marcus and Mark Amann

On this episode of the Moving Forward podcast we talk with Marcus, who will be starting his junior year this fall at Ankeny High School.   Marcus has been a member of the Dream Team for three years.  He has this special ability to make everyone around him feel comfortable and at ease.  He can hold his own with any member of the team when it comes to speed, but he’s also one of the best members of the team at encouraging and helping members of the team who are struggling.   And we speak with mentor Mark Amann.  Mark, aka Gunny, is a former Marine and EMT who just recently retired from the Ankeny Fire Department.  Mark served as a mentor several years ago and then returned in 2023 and is part of our leadership group.  We’ll talk with Mark about how Dream Team has changed over the years and get an update on the 2024 season.
