Bravo, Bravo.....they deserve it.

I was in attendance for a few of the CHL shows. Just not as many as red garter rob and cp irvine. I tip my hat(no pun intended) to the entire CHL staff for a great season.

 

By the way....hello cp irvine

remember me?  hothitz

I saw about ten shows this year and everyone was great.  They deserve it.

Definitely congratz to all involved with the CHL show, and also to everyone who was mentioned.  From the parts of the performances showed at the awards, there was some very stiff competition, and even finishing as honorary mention is really impressive.  It says a lot that although many know of CP as the coaster and ride capitol of the world, they also manage two award winning shows and an award winning technician when competing against entries from all over the world.  For everyone involved and CP itself, major congratz for producing the complete package.

Hey Brian.. I want to send a big thanks to you here. I was out of my house last night becuase something came up. Thanks for getting the info to us so fast I know the gang at CHL will really appreciate it.

I'm calling Eric and Todd after I post this..

I can't tell you how proud I am of the gang for doing so well this year. I spent so much time there with them and time with them after hours that I felt like part of the crew.

And Anne.. you asked, and my list says 479 shows.

Drinks are on me next visit...

Well besides feeling like I stuck out like a sore thumb in the beginning (especially when they started picking on parks putting in roller-coasters instead of shows), it actually was a fun presentation.  I was also really glad to see CHL win there in person.  It might have been only a minute or two clip, but at least I did get to see a bit more of the show.  Next trip up, I'd love to see the video you shot.
