I organized a very simple award ceremony for Opalyn achieving PEP1 yesterday.  There were about 15 people in the room but we caught the required 8 on the camera.  Ash Jackson made some beautiful awards so I gave one of them to Opalyn.

Way back when Mike was about to get PEP1, I knew this was going to happen while a bunch of us would be at Wheaton Labs for a BB20 event.

So, I packed the gear to make a PEP1 Trophy from a recycled youth sports trophy, and gave it to Mike. (+1 pt)

Attendees, I count 9 in the picture, requesting all 3 points.
