Very smooth 37' Cat II. Sponsored by the Magnificent Mountain Men FF Club.

//_A plea from the CD_
Many contests are held at free (or cheap) sites. Not so with the PPCC.
The $25 entry fee barely cover our rental costs. So... if you want to
see indoor continue at this excellent site, strongly consider attending
and/or donating. :-)
Thx
