There are many other people that helped out with this regional, as well as many on the committee that took over several responsibilities (as well as ones I neglected to mention). There are so many people to thank, and the success of this regional shows the outstanding dedication of all those that made it possible. Ryan Schroeder and Carolyn Percifeld, which you saw several times during the weekend whether running around the event or on stage for awards, were the incredible duo that made this happen. We had a great amount of media and an outstanding number of VIPs that came to this event.

Thanks to all that made this happen. And the finals... couldn't be better if we planned them!
