On this episode Ed remembers the trials and activities he did at the In The Zone trials over the years. Margaret MacEwen shares a few memories from the trial. LeeAnn Peters joins Ed to share some of her memories too. Sadly, this year is likely the end of NADAC sanctioned trials in the state of New Jersey. Hopefully that will change in future with some new group and location but NJ is an expensive place and hard to find reasonable places to hold a trial.

This year was the last year for the In The Zone trial at Salem County Fairgrounds in Woodstown NJ. This effectively means that there will be no more NADAC trials in New Jersey for the foreseeable future. To remember the location Ed Peters shot a walkthrough video of the Salem County Fairgrounds while trying to remember some things as he walked. Correction: The first time I went down to Salem County was most likely 2009 and not 2007 that I said a few times in the video walk around. Part Two of the end of In The Zone trials at Salem County will follow in a few weeks with a normal audio only podcast.
