2008 NNKC Awards Banquet

This year the awards banquet was held at the Rec Center in Sparks. It wasn't as "plush" as the hotel they usually had it in, but the club saved quite a bit of money (which is great!) and we all still had a very nice time! They had the meal catered by a BBQ company (they bring their big smokers etc. and they are outside-like big traileres) and they served tri tip with au jus and horseradish, salad, veggie platter, rice, steamed veggies and chicken thighs, breasts, wings and drumsticks. Very yummy!

Here is what the tables looked like. The chairs reminded John and I of being in school in the 80's and it was like being in the school gym. It was fun!

The cake was 2 layered, one chocolate and one vanilla with strawberries and whipped cream in the middle...Mmm!

Here is Justin with his 2nd place trophy and Trevor with his 1st. Trevor thanked Justin for making it such an exciting racing season. Justin only lost by 1 point...yes ONE! Sure made for some pretty exciting races!

Justin's trophy...they were the best trophies ever this year, in my opinion. Very nice, heavy and beautiful, not cheesy!

Jacob having a bit of frosting...

Justin with his Junior Rookie of the Year Award!

Isn't it beautiful?

Grandpa winning 3rd place in his class! The MC was joking about how he was the "rookie" of the class (it's his first year racing) but he wasn't a kid! The man on the left is Rich Adams, who took first place (his first year as well) and he's one of Justin's dentists!

Bob with his trophy.
