Just wanted to give a quick shout out to "Manteno Main Event" and Sean Hoffman(Manteno's Director) for putting on an amazing competition. This was one of the best ran competitions we have been to!

1. Everything ran on schedule
2. Parents/Students/Staff were extremely accommodating
3. The Director's lounge was amazing! (I think I gained 20lbs from the food/desserts)
4. An incredibly friendly and fun atmosphere
5. Easy access to all the rooms

Our kids had an amazing time at this competition and I highly would recommend this competition to any group!

Thanks to Sean Hoffman, Manteno Magic, and all the wonderful parents/students/staff who made it such a wonderful event!

Thanks for the results. Troy is having a fantastic season! Congrats Express! El Paso-Gridley is doing some great things too!
