Opening night reception was a great hit with everyone.  The weather cooperated, lots of people, food and music. 

After much debate our 2 judges reached a decision.  Our judges this year were Rieta Park Assistant Director of Mystic Seaport Museums's Meritime Gallery, and Don Bousquet, Nationally known cartoonist.
