It was said that entrants were only allowed one entry per subcategory. Is this a new rule? I thought it was just a maximum of 3 per category?

Don,

As we discussed at the Oct. club meeting, we will be using the one entry per subcategory rule.

We have not used a max of 3/category rule, while I have been Comp Cord.

The one entry per subcategory rule, was a rule we adopted earlier this year.

How did you intend to enter (3) entries into this competition?

Please turn your entries in on time. I called Kelly and he has received only one entry so far. Please turn your entries into HBHQ by 1pm on Friday. If you need to, you can make special arrangements with me to drop off your entry at my home Sat. (but I may or may not be home, and you may have to leave your entry on the front porch).

I will not accept any late entries on Sunday. It is tuff to make to keep the anonymity of a entry, if you show up Sunday, with everyone watching you, and your entry is in a green bottle.
