Not sure of a team name but very excited about this challenge!!! Yeaaaahhhh!!!

J3nnaLyn

Good, glad you're excited!

bobbiedr

I'll try to think of a team name, but I'm not very creative!

I hope I am able to help out the team the best I can. I'm not sure what this challenge will involve as this will be my 1st big group challenge.

TDBrims

Why hello team mates...buddies....motivational folkies.....Ooooh we need a scary name that says WE MEAN BUSINESS

I'll try to think of a name. However, creativity is not something that I am good at. I will try my best.
