Ron
Thanks very much for providing these awards. I held back on announcing
that awards would be given because the initial idea behind making this
event into a contest was just to make it possible for it to be an F1D
qualifier event. Also I was a little unsure of how the awards would be
given - in other words what was required to win one.

I saw the sample award that Larry Coslick brought to West Baden and it
was very nicely done. I'm sure the recipients will be pleased with them.

I understand that Larry is contributing to the cost of the awards so
great thanks to him as well!
