I know I say this every year, but I am extremely excited to be hosting the challenge this year and I think this will be the BEST YEAR YET! For those of you that have participated in the challenge before, there are some changes that might affect you!
I want to thank all my DAC 2012 Helpers! They have been busy working behind the scenes helping me get everything ready! I can’t thank you all enough!!
