I believe Layne & Izzy will be at the show (Dekalb). I did the show the last two years. Ray runs a very good show and have very unique statutes (awards), especially the overall. I like the Egyptian theme. I know a few guys competing but I don't think they post in this forum.

Since you and Nic (and a number of others) are doing the show, I'm going to try and at least make Prejudging.

DeKalb show
My girl Lori and I are competing in the OCB for the first time! I've followed this show for the past couple of years, and we're very excited to be doing it. We're coming outta of grand rapids, MI. Good luck to all competitors and safe travels!

The Midwest OCB was a great success! The competitors looked top notch. There was a lot of energy at the show and a very friendly group. Ray puts on a wonderful show. It was great meeting everyone, thanks to everyone who stopped by and talked with me. I enjoyed meeting all of you! I also want to congratulate everyone on a successful show!

I agree with what has been said about this show as well. Ray always puts on a great show. The competitors seem to always be friendly (maybe one or two who don't socialize but whatever). The show is held at the Egyptian Theater, a historical landmark and is a beautiful venue! Another attraction is that Ray goes all out to get very unique trophies for the winners. This year they were beautiful ceramic plaques with the Egyptian theme on them..gorgeous and a great idea Ray! The show has built up since it started back in 2005..getting bigger and better each year!

This show was run extremely well. Ray does a wonderful job of preparing the athletes and making sure everyone knows what to do and when to do it. The entire show was a pleasure to be a part of. Even the Egyptian Theatre which holds the show is an amazing venue. I will be attending this show when ever possible.
