CRAIG PRODUCTIONS LLC

     It was an exciting time at the competitor check in tonight!  We had 143 total competitors check in with the staff!  That is close to being a record!  Our two bloggers Dave Patterson and Diane Rudholm were there looking lean and ready to go.  It was clear to me that everyone had come tonight bringing their best physique.  It is game on!  They have done their homework!  I got to meet he US Navy military man Don that I have been talking with on the phone.  It's his first show and as a newbie he has had a lot of questions.  He wants to be ready when he takes the stage for his first time.  Look for him in the Novice Mens Heavyweights.  There were old friends that have graced our EmeraldCup and Ironman shows many times before!  Heidi Hansen flew in with her family from Alaska.  It's always fun to have Heidi in a show because she is so bubbly and helpful to all of the other girls!  I even saw Pumphouse Gym Bryan Baranowski and Sports Plus Josh Fallis - competitors from back in the early 80"s when I used to compete!  This is going to be an amazing show!  There are so many competitors and I would love to mention them all but it is 11:30 pm and I must get to sleep to be ready for the big day tomorrow!  I did get to spend some time with our pump up room queen National level competitor Gerri Davis and her husband webmasterDan!  And IFBB Fitness Pro's Tanji Johnson and Michelle Mayberry will be there tomorrow judging.  Tanji will be out greeting the audience and signing pictures so make sure to look for her.  But it's time for bed.  Good night and see you tomorrow!
