Hi Rick,</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
yes, by the time I realized that the Arvin contest was on the same date as the Medford contest, it was too late to change it. I screwed up and apologize <span contenteditable="false" id="😌">😌</span>! I also sent my apologies to the D7 team. The Medford contest
will not be a D7/D8 shootout. Hopefully we'll find a date that works for both of us next year!</div>
<div style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
Thanks,</div>
