Thanks everyone!

[Kejtar]

I would like to thank everyone involved that has made this a great event. I talked to a lot of folks throughout the event and after and everyone agreed on two things:
1. It was GREAT
2. It was COLD

OK, now it is time to start singling folks out:
JohnX: thanks for the dinner! You've done great as a cook.
Trail Leaders: thanks for taking the time to get folks through the trails in more or less one piece.
And anyone else that helped out as well: THANKS!

Raffle: At this point based on a preliminary count I did last night all I can say is that we got quite a bit of $ in. I will post an accurate count towards the end of the week (cash bin is in the garage with the rest of the stuff I unpacked and I won't get to it till later as tomorrow I have to fly out to TX). All proceeds will go Dylan (http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=915052&highlight=iraq)

So... we same time same place next year? :D

Hey... *somebody* was *supposed* to be leading an easy run. :roflmao:

That said, we had a great time, and no major damage (running boards, and one mirror from the tree I didn't see. I'm looking forward to being able to go in a Jeep, as soon as I can get my grubby little mitts on one.
