Freewheelin' Now
By Jim Reid and sung by Ed Miller, "The Edinburgh Rambler"

I'm getting' o'er the hill, it seems,

though my heart it still feels young;
But, they say when half a hundred's here,

your flings should a' be flung;
But, I some flings have yet tae flung,

before I end my days,
So, I don't want tae hear ye use that,

"Och ye're past it" phrase

Farewell to Lori Henderson

Lori (pictured below with husband and former U200 Masters World Champion, Kevin) has been the official scorekeeper for the MWC for several years. In that capacity, she has not only kept score, she has kept the show running smoothly throughout each day of competition. Lori has provided the computer, printer, paper, certificates, etc. for all the games. She has overseen the medal presentation to all event winners. What a valuable asset she has been to the MWC and we will all miss her expertise, attitude and smiling face very much. Thanks Lori for all that you have done.

lip balm, sunscreen, gum and a first aid kit.
