I'd like to thank Jim Jones and all the folks at Kettlefoot for all the work they did to put on a great IR50/50 Nationals. As a match director, I know that was not an easy task, one day is tough, 3 days in a row is super tough!
Ken Camper and I were talking this morning about what a well run match that it was and I wanted to let you know that we do appreciate the work all of you did.
Leonard and I had a good time. I was worn out and sick,
so we needed to leave for home quickly after the match was over, or I would have told you in person.
Congrats to all of the winners and

Thanks to all the Kettlefoot folks!

Thanks

To all who were instrumental in the IR 50/50 nats. They came off without a hitch.It was a really great weekend, the weather was great the people were great the food was great and Jim ran a very fine match.I want to thank especially Bill Pippin and his scoring team I have never seen a better looking and working team it was superb.I really liked the time factor where Jim gave us plenty of time and we weren't rushed at all it was great.I am looking forward to next year, and Jim when you see Jessie tell him we really missed him.

I would like to add my thanks to Bill Hindgardner, Jim Jones, Wallace Putnam, Bill Pippin, and all of your helpers that made the Nats such a great weekend of shooting.

It will always be a very special weekend for me. See you next year.

Bill, sorry for your loss.

Nationals

What a great event. Is was very well run and ran smoothly. My sincere thanks to Jim and his hard work. The best aspect was seeing old friends from years past and meeting new people including a fine shooter from as far away as Olympia, WA.
My thanks to Helen Spafford for keeping me supplied with and endless supply of Brownies, chocolate fudge and sandwiches. Thanks Bill and Rachel.
 
I would like to take a moment to thank everyone for their kind words. I will admit this being my first Nationals I really didn't know what to expect. We will take what we learned this year and learn from our mistakes and do our best to make next year better.

Wallace Putnam has been my leaning post all year, even through his health problems he was always there. I cannot express in words what that means to me and just saying thanks doesn't even come close to being enough.

Wallace and Bill Pippin have guided me this year with their knowledge of the game and their experience. Not only do I thank them for their help but also their friendship. I feel blessed that I have met several new people and have formed new friendships.

Jim Pepper all year you and David Cook have been there to back me up on whatever I needed. I guess in the long run what I'm trying to say is without these people and many more that I haven't mentioned I would have had a really harder time getting through this year.

Last but not least------ Dexter Baumgarner it didn't matter how far down my spirits were I could always depend on you to lift them up and I can't think of a single time that you didn't offer to help out.
I know there are many more people that were always there for me and a special thanks for all.

To close this out, Wallace and Dexter's wives I wish there was some way to give you a special thanks for always keeping our sweet tooth satisfied and our stomachs full.

Thank you all

Jim
