Just returned from the WCLR in Du Quion, IL., had a great time and the indoor facility was excellent. A little different looking up at a ceiling when doing linework but with the inclement weather it sure was nice to be inside. Alot of work went in to making this event a success, hats off to all the sponsors, vendors and volunteers. To all from L.U. 702 thanks for the hospitality. Already looking forward to 2011.

Thanks wudwoker, we all put in hard in this event. Big thanks to the competitors as we hardly had any complaints.

Also big ups for Arizona Public Service/IBEW Local 387 for winning the Team Overall, Jason Novak from IBEW Local 702 as the Overall Individual Journeyman and I forgot the Overall Apprentices name.

Also there were two runs that I was VERY impressed with. Jason Novak from IBEW Local 702 ran the Hurtman in 48.78 seconds which broke his old WCLR record.

And the other run was by the Arizona Public Service/IBEW Local 387 boys (Brian Wheeler, Toby Claude, and Jason Houle.....I think I have that last name right) ran the Hurtman Energized Mystery Event in 1:15 That was a 3 phase line with a crossarm, neurtral and pot with switch, and a triplex pulloff with the dummy just at the transformer. The groundman had to kill the pot by pulling the switch with an extendo stick, then both climbers had to go up and keep the 170lbs. dummy off the pole and get him down safely. One minute and fifteen seconds is IMPRESSIVE!
