SPS 2011: The Annual SPS Olympics Begin with Egg Toss

What better way to celebrate the July 4 Holiday weekend than the annual SPS Olympics?! The Olympics began with an event long celebrated in Ancient Greece: the Egg Toss (apparently the Athenians were particularly skilled at this event, as were the Corinthians). As the photos below show, our competitors battled valiantly for airborne egg supremacy.(Above photo: Danny lets fly with flawless egg tossing technique)
