The Awards Ceremony is scheduled from 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm. Who is taking odds on the ability to stick to that schedule? I do not think I have been at a Combined Div B/ Div C National Awards Ceremony that has taken less that 3.5 hours....

Last year, awards’ scheduled start time was 7:30, and awards concluded and people were dismissed at about 10:25. Maybe they’ll manage to get all of the scores in on time this year to remove the typical delay at the beginning.

Yeah, that's certainly a little optimistic.

Last year's awards seemed never ending...that could be because it was the first time we medaled in ZERO events.
