I know I promised a grass surface, but if we do see some rain, clearly we will have to retreat to the pavilion. I will bring some bigger blankets to prevent tips from hitting concrete as best we can.
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
I could bring a giant beach towel to play on If you need it!
Good luck tomorrow! Hope everything runs smoothly.

Good luck tomorrow! Hope everything runs smoothly.
Thanks! I'll take all the help I can get!
The day was long and the battles were fierce, but at the end of it all it was great to see everyone out together visiting with old friends and making new ones. Thank you all so much for making it a great day!

Special recognition goes to the car-load of our friends from New York and Pennsylvania for coming down to spice things up! It is so cool that we can build bridges between communities and support each other like this. You guys are fantastic!
That's all for now, but if anyone has pictures that they want to post or experiences that they want to share - be sure to post on the thread.
See you all real soon!
