Thank you for putting together an absolutely stellar event, CSK! The escape room was a blast, replete with clever puzzles, great acting, and immersive props and costumes. Such creativity, attention to detail, and artistry throughout the entire event!

You guys are absolutely the best at events! Dbare and I had such a good time today all of the carves were fantastic, got lots of exercise walking up and down (repeatedly) and truly enjoyed meeting the characters for this particular event! Both Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman were spectacular! Thank you for hosting such a wonderfullyly well done event and quite frankly thank you for being you guys!

What a glorious event. So glad I made the trip and met so many wonderful people. Fun was had by all, even those of us who lost their heads! Xoxo to the whole cast and crew.

Thank you so much for the event! I have never been to anything like it! I am baffled by the amount of work, enthusiasm and acting skill went into this event. My only wish is that I could have gotten more boxing in. I'm totally shocked that Kudichan and I completed the escape room. It was the icing on the cake.

Seriously, this was an absolutely amazing event. Thank you CSK, FunnyMingo and cast members for all of your hard work. The acting, puzzles, props and costumes were just out of this world. I have to echo LROSEM and say that the only shame was that I was too broken to letterbox. But I will never forget the epic escape room and the fantastic time I had with such great company. So happy to have finally experienced a famous CSK/FunnyMingo event, and even get an epic trophy to boot!

Ok, I know it's a few days late, but it took a while for the Glow of the Gloriousness of this event to fade enough so I could see my screen.

Yes, it was THAT good.

I have been to several CSK events before, so I had (perhaps unfair) really high expectations. These expectations, of course, were surpassed. The amount of incredible CREATIVITY that went into every single aspect of this event was phenomenal. The Escape Room was brilliant, and creepy, and clever, and just TOTAL FUN!!!

The clues and boxes were brilliant, the carvings fantastic, the table toppers unique, the costumes and actors absolutely perfect... am I gushing? Tough... it is WORTH gushing over!

In addition to the event itself I just want to throw some specific thanks out there... to Angel and Demons, who is not only a great carver and wonderful academic, but a truly smart partner who carried our team (The Ichabod Craniums) through the Escape Room... as Maxwell Smart would say... "missed it by THAT much...". She was also a lot of fun on the trails... I LOVE boxing with fascinating people!!

To LCAB, the Lady with the Truck, who helped a couple of "seasoned" boxers like us when we were starting to feel just how "seasoned" we were. Your kindness and off-roading abilities are unmatched!

To Mu and Razorbill... my roomies in the AirBnB, and after-hours puzzle partners. Guys, you are a BLAST to hang with! Between all the storytelling (yeah, I tend to ramble on a bit at times) and the challenging Pun-based puzzle game, it was a real pleasure to get to know Razorbill, and to get to know Mu better. I hope this was just the first of MANY such encounters!

Finally, to Martini Man and Wisconsin Hiker... we met up with them for dinner Saturday night. I had met them before, briefly, but hadn't spent much time. However, we had an hour wait for the table at the restaurant, and then another hour over dinner. Normally, this would annoy me. But THIS time, I was thankful for it!!! It gave me the opportunity to chat (yes, again, I tend to chat incessantly) with two of the nicest, warmest, most interesting Old-Timers. Us Old Folk took several trips down memory lane that evening, regaling each other with stories of technological yore. Again, may this be the first of many.

So KUDOS to ALL INVOLVED! It was a fantastic weekend, in every facet!
