The Caterer who generously sponsored all that great food was Ramzal and Mike of My Donair at 3930 - 32 St NE. Please go by and tell them that you were at the Maddog event and order up some food. Extremely clean and comfortable place with friendly atmosphere. They are great people. VSP came across them by accident when "drumming up" sponsors. I think they were fantastic. I enjoyed meeting everyone at the Maddog event and the round table discussion..
