WOW, to coin a phrase.. Did the TV Station show that whole interview on TV? If so, that was great. We can only get about 1 Minute of TV time on the news here. Great job!!

Yes the entire interview was on TV

It was fun, but for 5 minutes of TV time, it took about 3 hours of work.

We thought that the TV time would really boost our local attendance, mainly spectators.

In reality it was our worst spectator turnout, we hope it was due to local road construction, however we have noticed this trend of poor spectator turnout at other events.

They did invite us back for next year, so maybe we will try it again.
