Please remember to be fair and honest during this contest. After all it is more for fun than anything. Young or old, beginner or highly experienced we all have the same chance.

We are doing this to bring people of all kinds together in a wonderful hobby where some can teach and some can learn but most of all for everyone to just have fun. If it goes well this year and everyone seems to enjoy it we will put it on every year. Everyone will be assigned a number and voting will be a number system. The only ones that will know which person goes with what number is us. So therefore things will be fair.

Voting is open to the public. No KCA employee or family member of employee is allowed to enter this event or vote. Please direct any questions to Kim.


(Kim, I took the liberty of re-posting this info in the thread, hope you don't mind. Also, will there be any special pricing on the above items to entice hobbyists to partake in this event?)
