The following is the rest of the notes I took at Skate Detroit that I haven't already posted. Also, I've added all of my Skate Detroit reports to my web site which can be viewed by clicking here (http://www.mattsavoie.com/2002skatedetroit_day1.htm).
I had a great time at Skate Detroit and hope I can attend again next summer. To everyone who competed here, good luck in the upcoming season and I hope you stay healthy!
