Its another winter contest....

I recently posted a photo in the Photo Gallery from Niagara 2002......here's the link
http://www.bigpumpkins.com/displayphoto.asp?pid=5662&gid=1

There are 8 growers in the photo. The first one to correctly identify all of the 8 growers here on this thread will win the following orange goodies....

904 Northrup 05
1016 Daletas 01
831 Zunino 01 (aka Beowulf)

Rules...... If you are in the photo, you are not eligible. If you recognize one of the growers in the photo, you can ask them who the other growers are......(but you can't ask me).......Who are the Niagara 8 ?

The Niagara Seminars are great. In addition to learning a lot, its a great place to meet lots of growers and make new friends. Even though I cannot make the trip this year, I encourage all growers to attend if possible......I won't be there in person, but I will be there in spirit.

The gray area in the background of the photo is not the sky..... its the mist from the falls.

Farm Chuck is the winner !

Greg "Sandwich" Kurkowski, Bart Toftness, Glenn Andrews, Shellie Rivard, George Webster, Beth Rado, Todd Kline and Rock Rivard.

Yes Andy, I remember that night very well, I still laugh when I think about it !!

I thought it would be real hard to figure out who Beth was !

aggrower, a visit by you in seven, then off to Niagara the next weekend.....March will be coming in like a lion! Awolf, some great memories for sure, we'll make some more this time around too.

Santa Rosa, CA

Yes!!!

It pays to check the mesaage board from time to time. I spent alot of time looking at "mug shots" on aggc to figure out who was who.

Perhaps a 772.2 Poirier ('06) X 1016 Daletas ('01) cross!

Thank you George. You are a very generous grower.
