I had to leave early on Sunday, from the conference, and didnt get to see the completed tables.
Did anyone take pictures?

I posted the tables on the NWBA Facebook Page. I did not get the greatest pictures as the crowd was large and it was a challenge to get the ones that I took.

Click on the Facebook Page link and you should be able to see them. Let me know if you cannot.

On second thought, I am posting them here as well for those who cannot figure out the Facebook thing, or would just rather not do the Facebook thing. Again, I apologize for the pictures, they are the best I could get at the time. :ninja:

I just emailed Jeff about that. Will replace the WS conference website with a photo album.

Grant has replaced the pre-conference info on the Western States Conf. site with a photo slide show. See it at http://westernstates2011.com/

If the site still looks the same to you, refresh the page. Often you're looking at a copy that is saved in your computer's cache. You should see the WS header and just the slide show on that page.

Thanks to whomever put that site up, very nice pictures indeed. Thanks also to the person(s) who took the pictures as well! It's good to see that all the teams and tables made it in front of a camera! Thanks again!
