OK, time to exhale….
Whew, what an event! The jams had a zest that spoke to the creative urgency of the situation. Everyone was bringin their A game, knowing these jams had to have that extra bit of intensity needed to express the appreciation of the occasion of which we all are familiar with when we have such a gathering of the Jamily. Times like these remind us, once again, of how our precious freestyle disc play is a treasure for all of us who have found each other to share in that special sacred space of pure fun. A wonderful time was the reward to all who made the effort to come to OB and bask in the weekend of pure shred.
Many congratulations to the winners, new and legacy, the runner’s up, and many thanx to all who attended. And for Pavel, being the 1st Beachstylers participant to come over from Europe for the event, he received a mini treasure chest from the 2011 event. Amy and I’s commitment to keepin the Beachstylie vibe fun was fully absorbed and returned, mega-fold back to us. A special thank you to James and Pavel, who both infused our home, and the tourney, with a vigor, and to Marie and Gerry for getting the house and bringin the Windjammers style o’ love to OB. Much appreciation to Jake and Rick Lebeau for capturing the images, to my lovely partner in disc and life, Amy, for orchestrating the pie party Friday, and lastly for the cameo appearance of Randy Silvey with his mischievous, unannounced Sunday arrival. Thanks again to all who helped make this year’s Beachstylers one for the ages! SSSSWWWWAAAHHHH!!!!!
