In all seriousness, it is all over. Thanks to everyone who attended, competed, vended, spoke, and displayed models! We wouldn't and couldn't have done it without all of you!
I know that following these shindigs there are always a few standard questions.
One is how big was it? In our case, 961 registrations (as near as I can tell, 3rd biggest ever). 450 vendor tables (most ever) and roughly 5000 models on display (again, most ever). While breaking records wasn't the goal going into this, it was kinda fun.
It was also rewarding being able to give back to so many folks who've given so much to us, and me in particular. Thanks to all who came for trusting us to do our jobs, I hope we didn't let you down.
Now, the one thing that everyone wants to know...who won? Here's a link to the awards presentation that Vlad spends an inordinate amount of time putting together in between judging wrapping up and the awards on Saturday night. Thank you for all that work Vlad!
