Thanks Mal. I will be there, and will stick around until little-league duty calls. Hopefully reports of the death of the season in the wake of the recent rains are greatly exaggerated! Either way it's always a fun, informative day.

Unfortunately/fortunately I will not be attending - the Tennis State Championship is Saturday, and despite my best efforts the Gorham Boys will be there - with me in tow. Have fun - and find some fish because this rain and high water has been depressing.

I'm planning on heading down tomorrow morning, though I will only be able to stick around until 8:30 or so since I'm picking up a new members of the family around 9:30 (puppy). Looking forward to learning some new stuff... Thanks for volunteering the time!
