GCT, true to its reputation, outdid itself in creativity and style despite having the heaviest lift and the fewest number of members of any club in the Zone. In true GCT style, EVERYONE played some part in getting us there — a real team effort.

The following GCT members volunteered at the show:

  • Carol L: Advisor-at-Large

  • Holly: Advisor, Jewelry

  • Carol C: Co-Advisor, Backed Pedestals

  • Georgette and Deborah: Judging Clerks
