The plan was to return by 9:45 pm but it ended up being 10:30 due to on-site delays and and extended performance by the (very good) U of Toledo Band tonight at Chelsea.   The kids presented themselves, their city, and their school so well in Chelsea..  I am so proud of them.  Their performances was first class as was their deportment all night long.

But again, I apologize for the lateness.  The late end to the event was as much a surprise to me as anything.
