What a fabulous event from start to finish. I never knew you could walk so many miles in Old
Sac!!! Thanks to Slick Kitty for her creativity and expertise to pull off such a fun time. A very heartfelt thanks to all the various support cast members and so many of them in theme... From Sherlock and Watson (great job!!!), the School Marm was so perfect and the gypsy and conductor (a cute pair no matter what the "deal" is or "where" it is!!!), Sherlock Jr and friend were so much fun, Gary for holding down the fort and all that helped to put this together. Kudos to all.

A special thanks to my team members... YEAH!!!! as well as the other participating teams. Thanks for the fun.

Wendy is right--kudos to SLICK KITTY and her support family for a great day! The weather was as good as one can expect for Sacramento this time of year and even those of us who did not 'compete' in the hunt enjoyed ourselves--we always seem to have more fun when we're wearing a costume!! It was great meeting new 'boxers too.

My favorite part of the event was the wonderful log book every team got. Works of ART! Thanks to all!

Oh my goodness, Tom and I talked all the way home about what a well-organized event this was: Simply everything was perfect. It must have been so much work for the whole team. We certainly appreciated it.

Favorite moments: Exploring the upstairs vault of the costume shop (racy!), knowing how ridiculous I must have looked running down 2nd Street screaming, "Gypsy!", watching Lost Sailor in the candy shop, meeting the esteemed Princess Lea, and Wendy and I agreeing that letterboxing means adults get to have as much fun as kids. Oh, and also, hearing Slick Kitty say, "You are third!" which felt terrific.

What a fabulous day. You guys all rock.

Cheers, EB

We echo everything already said about this marvelous event. Kitty and crew pulled off another fabulous, fun day for fortunate participants. Frank and I had the best teammate ever in artTrekker. We had determined to just have fun and do our best. Who knew that we would hear those great words: You are first. Thanks to everyone involved. Just wish we had more time to visit with the other teams. Hope to see you all again soon.

On behalf of Puppychups and myself, we had a great time too. We didn't race but being volunteers and part of the event was so much fun. Can't wait to the next one!!!
