YHC caught some grief since the stadium lights were not turned on, a gate was locked, and the track did not have stripes. Even though these difficulties were overcome, any further complaints should be directed in writing to Knox Co Schools.

A team sand bag toss for distance competition between Big Ball and Asylum PM was the Ghost Flag tiebreaker.

COT:
Proverbs 16:1-3 are my theme verses for The Quacken this year.

The LORD knows my motivation and how I can either be on the campaign trail to get guys to come to the Quacken and not really care about them and be more concerned with my own agenda OR I can be discouraged and think this is not worth doing, too hard, etc.

Scripture is a way to correct both of these harmful ways of thinking. It says to me “Continue to work hard! Remember that it is not all about you!”

Prov 16:3 Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established.
