We are working on ideas for 2010 to give the event a dynamic feel! more later....watch this space! Thanks to all the visitors that make this possible ;-) Thank you to all the Army folks who helped make this event special for the visitors. The one thing that always surprises me is the generosity of the giving, be that time or money in a world with so much suffering its easy to become conditioned to expect the worst. This weekend we experienced the best!
