For most of the event, they were ahead of schedule.

I'd like to give a shout-out here to the field supervisors Brian & Kara and all the field reset crew, who did an absolutely awesome job cycling the defenses. The experiences learned during week 1 were also put to exceptional use, and prevented any major issues with the defenses. Everyone had an exhausting day on Saturday but it was amazing to be a part of.

Lots of other congrats are in order, trouble is I'm afraid of missing people if I start listing too many. But I do have to shout-out to the volunteer & event coordinators (Tom and Allie) who really inspire excellence in everyone around them, and of course Peter & James and all of 1218 who are always fantastic hosts.

It was great seeing and working with all the teams this weekend! Can't wait for Westtown and Lehigh.
