-------I wouldnt want this thread to end on the sour note of 1970Bluel78, so let me add my kudos of Bob A and his wife here. Bob always has a smile on his face. Its like its tatooed there. He and his people have continuously put together great shows for a very long time. Problems arise in any arena, but its the way a problem is handled that is remembered and I have never heard of a problem that Bob and his people didnt get taken care of to the parties satisfaction. Im a Detroit area guy and all of us up here know that when something happens Bob A will get it handled.......Bill S

Good point Bill. Maybe one of the Mods could lock this thread now.

NO, it the achievement the trophy represents, that is important.

I got a piece of paper when I graduated from college, they called it a diploma, most likely cost less to print than the trophy cost to make????????

Bill, I guess you missed the point. This was not a knock on Bob but pointing out how things have changed here in the USA. Just onew look at all the jobs we are losing and take a look at GM this week. Seems everything is going overseas even Car Show Trophys @ American Shows. Sour ? No Just really sad

------I didnt miss the point, but probably should have said that I felt you werent bashing Bob. The post was in a negative vein and I just didnt want the thread to end that way. Hope you understand.........Bill S

Well I guess if you would have seperated the two maybe I would have seen that " you got it ".Yes it was a negative but it was just about the state of affairs here in the USA

OK, hopefully this will be a final update and mods can close this one.

The remaining plaques have been sent to the deserving owners. Although we still have an issue with the actual plating of the bronze Spinners, I did get Bronze sprayed spinners to hopefully remedy this situation.

If any of the recipients are not happy with the actual spinner, they will be replaced as soon as this issue is rectified.

Thanks again for all of the kind feedback and as always, I am open to suggestions, comments and feedback, good or bad, to improve our shows.
