We spent the final day sharing  time with old and new friends, lining up future opportunities, and relaxing as the show came to an end.   We enjoyed camaraderie of the judges, the fun exploration made by the consumer panel, and connections made with the brands.  Special thanks to all of the volunteers who kept everything running smoothly. I was disappointed to hear after the show that someone had stolen the gator head from the Bayou rum booth.  I will be curious to see what the participating companies and attendees have to say about the event.
