Our congratulations go out to these four teams, for their hard work, dedication, talent and exuberance for the Spoken Word. Their work brought them to these spots, and they deserve it. We wish them all the best of luck, and success, as they go on to their next endeavours. We also say thanks, and a special shout out, to all the other teams that came down to our party on the edge of the Earth. It could never be as good as it was without you, and your words. You may not have made the top four, but you made the journey, and in the end that counts for more than any of us may realize.
If you'd like to read a report on the slam by a slammer turned Features Writer for the Monterey County Herald click here, and see what he has to say about it.
That's it for now. I'll have a bit more on this weekends activities for you, but in the meantime, enjoy the article.
