I am currently working on writing and sending thank you's to the families and businesses that donated to help my project. I am nearly the point where I can get them sent off, but I'm not totally there. I am truly thankful for these donors as this project would not have been possible without their donations.

Today we were able to present our presentations for the first time. It was only in front of our class and teacher, so it was good practice. We will practice them again next week, because the week following that we will present them to the public then to the judges. I still have some small things to tweak in mine, but I feel it went well and it will get better.
After counting the donations and team registration fees there is a total amount of $2,869.75, but $732 had to be accounted for from that for buying the t-shirts and the money given as a cash prize to the winners.
Yesterday was the day of my tournament. It was a long day starting with set-up at 7 a.m. There were teams showing up at 8 in the morning as well which I didn't expect, but they were polite and waited patiently for us to set-up because registration wasn't until 8:30. Once everything was set-up more teams showed and the games started shortly after. The whole day of games ran super smoothly with very few problems.
The final game ended at about 5 in the afternoon, so when the teams cleared out we started cleaning up. Clean up only took about an hour which was nice. Now the only things left to do is count the money from the day and send thank-you's to those that helped with the day. I designed and ordered a banner to hang up the day of my event. The banner has what the event is with the same logo as on the t-shirts. Also like the t-shirts, the donors of the event are listed so people can see them. I was able to get the banner fairly cheap for the size of it. It is six foot by 3 foot.
