Probably not this year being our first year.  It would be nice though.

That being said, I don't think it would be an Iowa Games without you, Brian!

They gave me your money, Hare, so I HAVE to go.  The people know what they want, and I try to give it them.  Plus I'm HUGE in Iowa.  Bigger than Whitesnake and Poison put together.

Nathan,

Awesome News!  I know I will be at the Des Moines Games the week before, so if you need to borrow any equipment, bring a truck!

I Concurr --
 
and will add Nathan and the crew from Mason City had crazy talent out on that field.... four women who have legit shot at being at the nationals may have been the highlight along with lots of promising talent and the cast of usual (or unusual) throwers (just to name a few: the La Crosse and Twin Cities crews, 5 very talent throwers from one family ). 
 
What fun seeing two shots at sheaf records:  Katie Steingraeber impressive attempt at the Women's record, she easily has the height   --- Isaac and Nathan taking turns at the men's record.  Jason Clevenger must have coated those bags w/ flame retardant to protect them from burning up upon re-entry
 
I heard a lot of PRs went down and saw some impressive throws   It was much fun to play a tourist and not have to do anything.

I had such a great time!  Watching the shootout among the top 4 women of the class was a privilige to be alongside of.  Mark is right about them all being national caliber--we have such talent in our region!
 
Great news article in local paper on Sunday too!

 That would be Candice Mann trying to scare the caber --- She has not learned that cabers don't scare easily!
