Boston was a GREAT regional; they even had their own P/R firm engaged. And, it went so smoothly from start to finish that I completely forgot that it was a "rookie" regional event.

Our team has tons of photos if you want to browse through them:

We loved watching the other teams in the finals since we got beaten at the buzzer in the quarter-finals....sigh!

But, we won the "Imagery" award for all our hard-to-see red camouflague motif. The public on Commonwealth ave at the lunch spots were a bit scared to see all of us coming at them.....and that doesn't include you all in bright pink either!
