Thank You

Joan Holt, our League manager wrote a note to all the teams that participated in the Fall Classic and asked me to post it for her (of course they are my sentiments as well).

To all of the wonderful competitors and library staff of Kent, Beacon and Millerton, we thank you for the opportunity to meet a bowling challenge. It was alot of fun. We hope to meet each one of you in person someday.
