[Kevin Kolodziej]

Thanks to everyone for a fantastic event! The IRI is consistently the best event of the year for me and it looks like I'm not alone.

Thanks to all the teams for making life easy for the refs and playing good, clean, Triple Play!

Thanks to Andy Baker and the rest of the refs for making this IRI the most memorable for me yet!

Thanks to all the participants in the talent show for sharing your awesome abilities. I am so jealous!

Thanks to all the talent show judges for providing non-stop hilarity.

Thanks to Amanda for organizing the talent show! Can I book you for my next event??

Thanks to the planning committee for everything, from the competition, to VEX, to the talent show, to the auction, to the food, to the dinner, etc.!

Thanks to everyone involved with the field reset/repair, especially Jerry and Arron - you guys rock!

Thanks to Team 233, The Pink Team, for coming so that I could finally see your beautiful machine in action!

It was great to meet Jerry, Arron, and Ben (amongst many others) in person!

It was great to see countless old friends, especially Jtosh, Katie, and John W.

Thanks to Arron, DJ, and Katie for one of the best dinners on Thursday ever.

Thanks to Paul and Dan for great announcing, as always. Paul, I'm glad you have terrible aim when it comes to small candy!

Finally, congratulations to all scholarship winners, auction winners, and award winners on a job well done!

P.S. no more exclamation points, I promise!
