I hope this give you an idea of all the areas there are to enter. The
thing I find most amazing is that because of dwindlilng
participation.......some categories had only one or two entries and a
few had NO ENTRIES AT ALL!
That means if you made a nifty thing and didn't bother to enter
it.......you let the chance of winning back some of your project costs
slip away!

I hope you have taken a moment to loook over the list and think over
some of the projects you have made this past year.
