Yesterday evening we had the Banquet and the Canopy Formation 2-Way Sequential Presentation.  During the evening we were treated to the well-received sounds of a great funk machine band from Chicago - The Heard. To bring the evening's entertainment to a close, we were treated to a fantastic firework display, ending with the MONDIAL statue going up in spectacular fireball!

Scarred but not destroyed!

"The Heard" - Chicago's funk machine!
