Read an article in some magazine about a home designer who was not using stone in any houses.  He pontificated about the irresponsible use of non-renewable resources.

A weekend means we will have tons of skaters there, from all over the state of Ohio. Columbus Craft Cotillion is hosting a craft fair the same day. The giant slide is just about equidistant from our venues, so that's all the things I like to do at the fair all in one. :) OHRG actually did this at the fair last year too, but it was a bit smaller since we were relegated to a weekday.
