HAPPENING NEARBY
Night Before Christmas - Contest Delayed to Christmas 2020
I personally apologize for anyone that was planning on participating in our Twas the Night Before Christmas - 2019 Story Telling Contest we announced before Christmas. John Harrington ( Computer John )
We wanted to create awareness of our new www.CassPod.com Cass Area PodCast Portal. We wanted to invite folks to try their skills in a fun Holiday way. Unfortunately I did not consider that in-order for such a contest ( seems simple enough ) has many moving parts and in order to be fair and successful - many volunteers would be required. Especially several credible and non-partial Judges - are required minimum of 3 Judges and as of 12/10/2019 we have only one. We therefore decided to delay the contest to next year. Sorry about that. If anyone has been diligently practicing, please email / share your MP3 w/special email address:
Again sorry for my poor preparation. Email Me at
