The 49th event begins. We watch the people go around the track again. |

.. and again they go around the track. Do you know any of these people
in the picture? |

Old Glory flies again. It took a little while to get the flag raised,
but there it is! |

The weather for this event was much better than last year. Here we see
more happy walkers. |

There were supposed to be a number of theme laps at this event. The
survivor lap is a always an important lap. |

These people are all walking around the track happily singing, "J-I-M
A-N-D L-A-NC-E". Jim and Lance, Jim and Lance .. |

There is a lot of people in this shot. We really do not remember why. If
you know , leave a message on the boards. |

Everybody loves a parade. One of the laps we had that day was the parade
of teams. We have tried different ideas for these laps, |

The reason we may not to the Lake Orion event next year on the
left, our good friend Jennifer on the right. |

Up, Up and Away in our... |

...beautiful, our beautiful purple-and-white balloons... |

Mr. Ecklesdafer, I presume? |

"There they are, these are the racers, they have boxes for cars. They
have boxes and their going to be racing after someone." |

"They have their boxes and they're looking quite alive. There even
faster than the powerful Mach 5" |

More views from the stage. It sounds like a nice title for a book. Maybe
a coffee table book. |

"And when the odds are against them and there's Relay work to do .." |

One of the most interesting activities that day was to blow yourself up
like a balloon and fight someone else until a "ring out". |

"Booooo yah !" |

You do not have to be at a mall anymore to have large amount of quarter
candy anymore. Hmm.. remember when it was nickel candy? |

This looks like fun. You just need the right girl or guy to pose with
you. |

Life was a "beach" that day. Heh-heh. |

Well, there is the marquee. I guess the theatre was lost in the tornado
that threatened this site last year. |

"The most technologically advanced, world-famous, yet totally unknown..
Jim and Lance Show DJ Team of the World! |

Some of these campsites we are featuring here, were really put together
well. |

Mmmm... Smoothies ! |

A nice shot of the equipment on the stage at the Lake Orion Event. |

"I really love this job, I was born to be a DJ. I cannot wait until the
50th event. I am so excited" |

Long distance shot at the campsite where the bull was setup later. These
people screamed the loudest that day. |

Another shot of the same campsite. These people rated a lot of pictures
because of their enthusiasm. |

Some of the Jim and Lance Show dancers that day. |

Here is a shot of a little fan club that formed out in front of the
stage. |

These people were making sure that their feet would not get wet if we
had another rain like last year. The puddles were deep. |

More of the same group. |

Hip-Hop Lance. "Yo, check me out at our 50th event.." |
