Sketching/Snow Tubing Survey Results
Sketching
It's a tie! The most popular responses were Thursday evening, 5:30-7pm, and Friday afternoon, 3:30-5pm. Both had nine votes. I'm working with Greg now to finalize 2-3 specific dates at one of these times.
Snow Tubing
Saturday afternoon wins, hands down, with 80 percent of the vote. I'm leaning toward February 20th right now.
