 A message from Ray at Follows Camp who made this all possible and carried forth Joe Davison's dream ...
 

Congratulations to QN4U team winning the Grand Championship and Coyote Road Kill becoming the reserve champion.

I would like to thank all of the participant that supported the event and made it to become a record in participation in recent years.

My special thanks goes to John Ross, who behind the scene pulled strings to make this become a reality. Also my friend Roger Cole, who out did himself as he usually does, to help me all along with good advise and support.

On Sunday The San Gabriel Tribune ran an article about the championship. If you look at the scores you recognize that no one won by the landslide proving the fact that you guys are "the best of the best."

When I was going around with the reporter and she keep asking different teams the same question of why are you here competing, almost the first answer without exception was, we like the camaraderie attached to these events and like to have some fun.

Good luck to all of you and looking forward to seeing you next year.

Ray Shokatfard
