John Where is the awards breakfast? Andrea again? Is it open? Don't see the breakfast mentioned.

I'll need to dig up the form but I believe the tent will be open for Breakfast Sunday morning for the awards. The Andrea is mostly gone - the tent on the patio is what they are working from

Breakfast awards reception at the Andera under a tent which the management will leave up for the M.S.
