Event Day Update
A HUGE thanks to all who helped me out today - Bill, who worked the
registration table, Moldslug, Hyprsqrt and GeoChef who ran the
"games for Adults", Flying Monkeys and his mom and Windrose who
kept the kiddies happy with the awesome games, Sunshine Gang and Jr
Eagle who did too many things for me to be able to mention.
Aardvark who brought the store down for our shopping pleasure. And
to each and every one of you who came, and whatever it was that you
did so that we got the weather we did. Yes, it could have been
warmer, but it was dry!!!!! If I missed anyone, my apologies. Don't
think that it was because I didn't appreciate the help.
And now, the winners of the MiGOlympics!

cache!)
