I'm driving mine down Monday. Stored on a pallet? YIKES! I assume this means they are not being refrigerated?

No, not refrigerated at all.

Don't have my assignments yet. Most likely IPA's for one cat.

I'll be working at the Brewers Hardware booth, so I won't have time.

Dropped my 2 IPA's off on Monday. You were right about having difficulty locating where to drop them. Front doors were locked. Wandered around for a few minutes until I found a lunch room. Handed them to a guy that said, "Suuurrrreee, I think I can get those to where they need to go." I followed up asking if he was sure and he responded with a firm affirmative. I'm sure they did get to where they needed to go but I don't have 100% confidence. I emailed Janis Gross on Monday with this story and received a very prompt reply about making sure that I had them in a box and not just in a carrier. (They were packed in a box). She also said that they would be checked in today, Saturday. Thinking about emailing Janis on Monday and asking if there would be anyway she can check to see if they were in the system. I know I need to relax and drink a homebrew which I would for any other competition but this is the NHC. I do not have high confidence that she has the time with preparing for the NHC to look up my 2 beers in the system but I'm thinking it can't hurt to try.

Thanks Greg! I think I will borrow your reply and realigned confidence to make myself feel better that my entries are also in very good hands. :thumbup:

Good luck!
