Dayton Diaries: Day Two

Spent the entire day so far in my room working on the consulting project.  Just one more conference call and then I head over to preliminaries.  The kids had a "preview show" last night in Kentucky.  The Executive Director reported via Instant Message that they did a good job.  I asked "how good."  He said, "There's always room for perfection -- LOL."    Then he informed me that comments were that if the show had been judged they would have won their class.

These preview shows are good for the kids -- give them a "home audience" to play to because the parents and kids in the other guards root for them, they feel as if they know someone in the audience.  It gives them a "dry run" -- a way to release the jitters and work out little things before the preliminaries.

Everyone is our competition in this class -- so we are hoping to make it to semi-finals.  Wish us well.
