(Quote by - Shawn Hunter)

This event is all put on by more than 100 volunteers. Just to set up will be an all-day event for this four-hour party.

(Quote by - Margo Jarvis)

At times, the event management process can be stressful and chaotic. We understand the challenges facing today's event planners. Experience has taught us that applying the right technical solution to any event gives event planners the peace of mind of knowing their events are well organized and cost-effective. Our technical certification program ensures that our event planning partners and customers have all of the knowledge support they need to produce and showcase their own successes. (Quote by - Tom Karren)

No, there is no concern from the I.O.C. side. Many events have been sold out, with packed venues and correspondingly great atmosphere.

Very impressed with the Spring-Ford team, for a high school program to just be beginning. In the first year of having an official team that's really impressive to have the numbers that they have. We had the opportunity today to swim a variety of events. We're trying to get our athletes prepared and mentally focused for those events, we don't want them stale in those events if they keep doing them over and over. Obviously we're going to find out where we stand in the upcoming weeks. (Quote by - Kevin Bott)
