I'll try to make it but I have 5 events that night and I will try to hit them all :shock:

Much belated but I wanted to thank everyone who came out. It was a pleasure to see people in person again, and I hope next year to see even more of you!

Once again a big thank you to the Challener family for organizing the dinner. It was great to see everyone again.

No, no one thought to take one.

Sorry, I am really bad about taking pictures (if a microscope isn't involved anyway). They put us in a smaller room upstairs which had good acoustics. That said I was down in the basement with a different group the night before and the acoustics down there are much improved so if we have more next year as I hope we will I think we'll be just fine down there.

He he. Remember that one year the restaurant staff forgot we were still in the basement and left us there?
