This will be a quick post.  I posted most things last night, but did get a couple of things that I will post this morning.

The cooks can go to that address and download the winner pictures full size so they can take them to Sams and have printed.

I will leave them up on the site for an extended period of time to allow for download.
There were over 2000 photos taken during the week.

From Robert (Wappo) Schrade:
Congratulations to Margaret Nadeau, 2009 TICC Champion. This my first year as Director and new Mayor of Krazy Flats was a learning experience. I want to thank Don & Dianna Hoy for their hard work and patience in teaching me the ins and outs of Krazy Flats. Also, a big thanks goes out to Raymond & Pat Pilchiek for their hard work and teaching along with Sammy Plant and all the others that jumped in and helped this year. How about Bruce Smith and the band that played a lot of great music during the days at the saloon? THANKS, please come back each year, you are much appreciated. Now, you are sometimes lucky enough to have someone volunteer to help out and go above and beyond the call of duty. This year we were lucky enough to have Roger Pate come down with Don & Dianna and work, yes work hard and nonstop. We had to make him take a break. He was constantly doing something - cleaning, working the saloon, or running to get ice. From all of the Krazy Flats folks and myself as director our hats are off to Roger, and a big THANK YOU. There are lots of hours of work put in to running TICC and Krazy Flats and I want to thank all who worked this year and hope to see you there next year. Also, at the Flats we had what looks like a very good year and we were able to raise some funds for the CASI scholarship Program with the stove raffle.

Thanks again to all,
Robert "EL WAPPO" Schrade
