It’s not often I write about items of a personal nature for this blog. It mixes work, so I guess it connects there too. Recently I volunteered for my 20^th tournament, and as of this writing I am undertaking my 21^st event. They are all special, different and memorable for a variety of reasons. There are some common themes and some uncommon circumstances. Often that is what makes each event so enjoyable. I’d like to dive into some of the things I have learned, experienced and continue to look forward to for the rest of event number 21 and beyond.
