The 2008 Regional Tournament on February 16 was fun and informative for all involved, students, coaches, organizers, and volunteers.  Thank you all for making it a great day!

Even the coaches were fair game for Magic Don’s antics.

 

 

Of course, the Closing Ceremony was all about medals and trophies!

 

 

Overall, we think the day was a smashing success!  Thanks again to all who participated.  See you next year!
