to each and everyone of you i say thank you. the tournament would not have been so sucsessful without your invaluable help. everyone i talked to had a good time and like the set-up. for all of you that read this and were there that day would you please add a short reply so we can start building up for the next event. if people know what a great time people had hopefully more people will come to future events. i sincerely hope that everyone had a great time and will take a few minutes to let people know about it. a lot of people went home with great prizes in the chineese raffle. each bag that i collected for, and there was 13 of those, were valued at over 70-80 dollars each easy. some people won more than one bag,
right jon molnar(lol) and really got their moneies worth. jeff inman i noticed really got a good deal. he won a couple of bags and the love photo package he won is valued at over $100. i talked to derek fess the owner of love photography and he said that the posted value was $85 but he is going to include a nice print with it that takes the value to over $100. jeff he said to contact him when you can to set someting up. (i think there was an experation date on the coupon but i dont think he would hold you to it)
anyway thank you to everyone who attended and helped out. thanks to all the bars and individuals, jennifer ehlert and missy london, who donated prizes. thanks to quotes bar for having us and having the fundraiser.
thank you everyone

Jon,
Congrats on a job well done. We had 41 participants in singles plus quite a few spectators and everyone seemed to be having a good time. I was very happy to see so many bronze and silver darters, usually when we have a tournament we have *maybe* 1 bronze and 1 or 2 silver darters.

Jon - Great job by you, Missy and all the volunteers that you mentioned previously for helping make this great event happen. All in all, it was a very well run event. I look forward to the next one.

And congratulations to Teresa Van Lieu for being awarded the Distinguished Darter Award! Teresa has always represented darts and the CDC with class so it was nice to see here win such a distinguished award. And also congrats to Teresa for her win in the Silver Singles final against Steve Farkas. It was a great match!

And thanks to my blind draw partner, Dan McDonnel, for carrying me through several tough matches during the blind draw!
