I have been thinking about having a BOM appreciation thread for George Stoneberg and Cameron Bergerman.  Kind of like the Christmas exchange, but only it would be folks sending a gift to George or Cam or both in appreciation for their dedication, time, work and effort they put into the BOM contest every month.

As I have said many times before, there would not be a BOM without these two gentlemen that give up so much of their time and talents in this very exciting contest.
 
What to send? You have complete artistic freedom. A few examples are raw materials or something you make especially just for them. What you send and or make is up to you.

If you would like to participate just post "I'm in" on this thread and I will send you their addy info or PM me. You may send to both or pick one to send to.

Yearly I send them snakes skins as a thank you for their invaluable support with BOM, but I think it would be right and good to thank them as a community.

I'm already in!  :) Cam and I live in the same city, and I send lots of goodies and 'projects' his way! He's my apprentice, so I have to make sure he has enough to do!  ;D 8)

Geeze you guys, the sentiment is nice, but this is really not necessary.  I volunteer to do the collages because I enjoy doing that sort of thing, and it helps out the magazine that I enjoy reading.  That’s reward enough for me.  But I know you guys are stubborn bunch and will not take that for an answer, so at the very least I would like to throw Cip into the mix as well.  He’s the guys that ties everything together, regardless of what’s going on in his life.  It’s a thankless job, so if you enjoy the contest, send some love his way as well!  I have the bugger’s home address, so if anyone wants it, just let me know.

I have already taken much more from this forum than I have given, and am greatful for all of that.  Cip, I still have yet to complete a bow worthy of putting those beauty copperhead skins on.  Someday I will show them off.  And yes, Adam (adb) has been a great inspiration and teacher.  Thanks for getting me started down this path and helping me all the way.  Hopefully I can do my part and pass on what I have learned to someone else, when the time comes.

Thanks guys :)
