WBC 2015!!
Hi Everyone! Here's what I've got for WBC 2015, this list is mainly a compilation of everyone's great ideas from the earlier post. Let me know if you think any changes need to be made. I will set up a post in the next day or two for the 25 pt tasks. As a reminder if we have any new people joining....the links to various lists are merely suggestions, there are tons of other books that would fit each category. The lists are provided as a reference/idea generator only.
