The Fall Show is Coming!!!

The Fall Show is coming.
Soon.
It will be on Saturday, October 15 at Borah High School.  Registration is open on the www.ngaidaho.com website, and tickets are on sale now at www.idahotickets.com and Select-a-Seat outlets.
The Fall Show feels like it has sort of snuck up on us.  This is the first time we’ve done a contest in the fall.  For the Spring show, we spend months getting ready.  But for the fall, everything has come down to these last few weeks.
The biggest reason for the delay was truly out of our hands – We didn’t know where the contest would be held until just a few weeks ago.
At the competition last spring, some of the competitors violated the rules of the school where the contest was held.  Because of that, we lost the use of that school, which is a huge bummer, created a lot of work for Bodybuilder Hubby, and was generally a really stupid thing for those particular competitors to do.

(You may notice some changes to the competitor waiver this time around. That particular "issue" will not happen again.)
But after a series of meetings and a lot of waiting for a decision, we got access to the new auditorium at a different high school for the Fall Show.
Actually, I’m kind of looking forward to poking around that particular high school – both Bodybuilder Hubby and I graduated from that school, though we weren’t there at the same time and didn’t meet until years later.
I wonder if the hallways smell the same?
We will be ready.  Today Bodybuilder Hubby purchased 1000 sets of parts to make the competitor number badges.
1000.
If that doesn’t indicate that we’re in this for the long haul, I don’t know what does.
See you at the show!
