Olympic silver medalist Toby Stevenson drew a standing ovation as he gave a brief thank you to Odessans as the Chamber’s second guest speaker at Thursday’s banquet.
Stevenson, a 1995 Permian High School graduate, told the crowd that he was proud to represent his country and the Permian Basin at the summer games.

Look you can pay $15 to have lunch with Toby
