Thank you for the update. I echo your statements about technology, I didn't get to go to the competition this year and when looking on the site at 4 pm on Monday it is still not updated. Once again thank you for serving "The People"
ReplyDeleteNo problem!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it unfortunate that the Miss Ohio site STILL isn't updated and that people who want to help and have the technical abilities are driven away...
