Yo, dudes. If you're on the fence about participating, then get off that fence. Isn't it uncomfortable to sit on a fence anyway?

I got to playtest the puzzles recently, and there are some excellent puzzles this year. (Including one really nifty one created by our DASH-queen herself, Valerie.) They're challenging without being frustrating, and it's a great chance to get out there with some fellow smarties and exercise that brain.
I've had a blast at the last two DASH events, and you will, too! It's a great deal for a day's-worth of entertainment, and well worth your valuable time to participate.
Can't wait to see you all there!
