Sounds like this will be the winner of the 2012 Event of the Year. Well done guys, wish I could have been there

No problem - I will get on to it.

And the Hall of Fame can be a a few venues - I was thinking we could create a poster quicker with all the 2011 pictures. I emailed you to say that we should get all the winners together soon and have photoshoot/ maybe a meal together/ and I want to get a Choonie stamp and stamp all the certificates - I am looking into that now - the logo and we need a motto too.

Martin - would it be possible to put up the list of who is in the hall of fame? - also, I think we should talk to Brooke and Derek about actually hosting a physical hall of fame
