Joe, thanks alot for your and Dr. Martin efforts promoting checkers. I spent
unforgettable time in Anderson, and I am sure - Ron too. From many other
checkers events I had attended since 1996 - this one is on top of my list. I
remember each single inch of check I've got from mayor of Anderson !
I am planning to be in Anderson again in October and play in the State tournament.
Do you have Air Ballooning this time of year ? :)

Thanks Alex for those kind words. We did a test run match on the turbo checkers
tonight and the spectators were AMAZED. We don't have a balloon ride scheduled
but all it takes is money, so we shall see.
