Here in New Hampshire we're going to receive the proclamation on Oct 17th from the governor. We'll also be able to have pics taken with the gov. and to chat with him.

Mark and Anna,
Sorry I havent gotten back to you very quickly...I will read up on what you need to do for the proclamation and get back to you next week when I have a little bit more time. I am without internet until Wednesday next week. So it will take me a couple days but hopefully I can get you all the info you need by next weekend.
Again, my appologies for not getting back to you sooner!
