<p> 2009 Indiana Regional Game of Logging Competition</p><p>The Indiana Regional Game of Logging competition was held near the Ford Sawmill in Vincennes. We could not have hoped for a nicer day with temperatures in the 70s and partly cloudy skies. There was a great cookout of hamburgers and hotdogs, some great watermelon and cantaloupe. I think everyone had a great time. There were 11 competitors in all, 2 landowners and 9 loggers. </p><p>In order for this competition to be successful, as it has been every year, many people and companies donate a lot of time, effort, money and prizes.
