All: The loss of power at the awards presentation was unfortunate. No microphone meant no one could hear the presentations. As for light, cavers always have lights. A write up will appear in the convention issue of the NSS NEWS with all the winners. The best we can do. Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt by the downed trees. We were fortunate that cavers were at the banquet. I saw cars and tents under the branches. One car has a 2+ft diameter tree trunk on top of it, and tents flattened .

I just want to add to George's statement that John Woods from California won the Arts and Letters Award this year for his work in photography and vertical training. Like many others, no one could hear the presentation. John most certainly deserved his moment, just as all the other recipients did. Sad for everyone who didn't get their acknowledgment. By the time most of them did, half the NSS was outside trying to hold onto their belongings and rescue other peoples' possessions. Once again, a typical NSS Convention with all the usual suspects….
