Participants greeted friends, made some new ones, ate an ice cream sandwich (or two), and got a family photo. A whopping 7 families completed the Stamper Station challenge, gathering evidence of their visit to all 7 neighborhood Stamper Stations.

A drawing determined the lucky household who will host Clairmont H. Gnome until our next neighborhood competition.

See if you can spot the gnome in his newest abode on North Superior.
