Very well done, and it was exciting being beaten by you! I suspect we will see this type of alliance(s) on Einstein.

Our team loves and respects UPS/1675. We felt sad when the description of the Chairman's Award team meant we didn't win, until we found out is was you! You totally deserve this! Will the award be placed on the altar somewhere at Renee's wedding?

Wildstang, we so wanted to be allied with you! A tie??? Really??? You should hold your heads high, you and Gear It Forward 2338 were the teams to beat at this regional. We hope to see you at R2OC in Rockford in August, and at the Flapjack Challenge in December in Winnebago.

Wedding cake shaped like the Chairman's Award.
