   It is looking like a damp morning, be prepared, we are a rain or shine event.
Be on the field before 8:30, for sinning in.
We will be throwing sheaf, so bring a fork if you have one.
Parking is in the cornfield by the athletic field.
See you all soon.

	Can only speak for Masters. Bill Waddell was the winner, me 2nd as Scott had to drop out to achillies, Kenny 3rd, Matt 4th and Robert Sims 5th. It was VERY wet, raining and slippery so most throws were not up to normal levels and Bill just coming back from his injury. Stones and weights were good, but not his best but somewhat passable for the rest of us. He cleared up to 17' wob with his oft hand easily and hit the bar at 18. Caber was a crap shoot as it was so slippery it was tough to pick and get a really good pull, but he did get a turn. Sheaf was horrible, brand new bag that was so tight and just got tighter as it got wetter. I think Bill no heighted, I got 18 and Kenny was the winner at 20. Despite all of that, we had a good time out. Robert Troupe and Wayne Pogany came by for a visit.
