I wanted to take some time & thank all the growers who attended the "Big Show 2" in Las Vegas it is you who make these seminars so memerable for all of us THANK YOU!!!

I would also like to give a little recap of the events for the ones who could not make it:
- Site operation from the time the pumpkin arrives till the time it leaves. This was a great interactive piece & one that we hope to edit down & have in all 2013 awards packages for the sites to utilize.
- Pumpkins 101 Andy, Ron, Steve, & Larry great presentation covering all the basics excellent job.
- Mr Friday night the Ice Man strikes again from Elvis to the flash mob entertainment Vegas style you provided a show that was worthy of Vegas stage THANK YOU!!!!
- Ron Wallace leaves nothing out of his path to 2K his research & proceedures were all available with out reservation awesome job!!!!
- Steve Daletas left me humbled by his indepth analysis on watering & the "Big Box" another awesome job!!!!
- Peter Sweet great history & story behind the drive to get the Master Gardner!!!!
- Joe Ailts your ability to make a complex topic understandable to all is a rare ability you just need to keep some of those secrets away from that Steven's guy ;-)!!!!

Lord Vader and his merry Jedi put on an unbelievably fantastic show. How they do this, go to their day jobs and still find time to grow giant pumpkins is not known. Either they never sleep or they have mastered light speed.
The force IS with Dave, aka, Darth Stelts and the GPC.
