National Skate Patrol (NSP for you newbies) to raise money and skate the only event in Chicago that combines skaters, and bikers. Still walking and biking are more popular then skating in this event but let's change that for next year. Whatdayasay? Special thanks go out to the folks that donated through me, helping me reach and exceed my modest goals. They are bother and sister-in-law Steve and Gail Ryan, great friends Gwen and Gary Konigsfeld, Gail and Richard Engling, and Ann and Mark Hollander. Thanks guys and gals. |
Pre-event coffee, always a must for the NSP volunteers. |

OK, remember, "It's not a race." |
No pre-event jitters today huh Jan? |

Heidi, still fresh after four or five hours of standing around on skates; though quite ready to eat and sit down. |
Kwang and Dave realize that standing on skates course marshalling is no picnic. |
Job done it's time to head out for the social half of the day. |

Nina and Steve know where the social scene is and join up for a brewski. |
