Steve,

Texas is one very large state.  That is a full roster, but I 've got one more entry for April.  The largest sandcastle competition in the US will be in Port Aransas April 17th - 19th at the Texas Sandfest.  I'll be posting all the details on AR, but here is a link in the interim. Thanks http://www.texassandfest.com/

Steve I saw the gumbo Fest in Beaumont.  I think that is like us taking Texas on in a chili contest.  I think we can win the gumbo contest.
