In addition, NSAC alumni helped with site preparation, provided sponsorship, announced for the day, served as CILA Head Judge and in many cases were event judges and timers.Ìý Present DAL AC students also assisted in judging and timing, recording of results, admission andÌýselling t-shirts.

On the alumni side, Marvin Weeks (former woodsmenÌýteam member and Woodsmen Coach) , Mario Bourque (Woodsmen team member) and Trevor Dillman (former woodsmen team member) Ìýwere all instrumental in the success of the day as well. In addition, many of the key event judges were former team members.

The event was once again supported well by the campus community and the community at large. Ìý

The year's CILA competitions culminate at the Rick Russell. ÌýBecause of the combined expertise and work ethic of all involved it continues to be the jewel in the CILA crown of competitions. ÌýThanks to all who participated and contributed to the success of the day!
