ADZPCTKO Planning

The Annual Day Zero Pacific Crest Trail Kick Off (ADZPCTKO), which takes place on April 25-27, 2008 is starting to get rumbling again. A planning session for the 10th annual ADZPCTKO took place this last weekend down at Lake Morena County Park.  Although I am the Presentation Coordinator for this event, I could not afford the time or money to make the trip down there. Nonetheless, the organizers will be doing some heavy coordinating between now and April for the event, and I know that we have some special surprises in store for this year.  

The infamous class of 2003 is getting plans ready to serve two meals at the event: burritos on Friday and French toast on Saturday.  Unfortunately, this year ADZPCTKO will be without Bob Reiss, who is taking a respite from the cooking duties.  For those who know Bob and what he has brought to ADZPCTKO, the organizers have some big shoes to fill.  The good news is that someone will be filling in Bob's shoes in 2008, and that will be Warner Springs Monty, who is coming fresh off the PCT this past year.  Bob provided a mentoring experience for Monty last year, so we are all confident that Monty will do a good job.
