I’m so sad that I’m out of town and not able to attend! When I let the organizers know that I couldn’t use the tickets I asked if I could pass them along to one of my wonderful followers and not only did they say I could do that they also offered a second pair of tickets! So that means two of my followers will each win a pair of tickets to this great event!
