2008 Result:
Team Description: When Ms. Bilbolink of Bag End announced that she would shortly be celebrating her eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbit-Tucson.
Naturally Bilbolink's heir and cousin (first and second once removed) Frodo-ruginous Hawk was a guest of honor and received a very special “birthday present” of his own in the form of Bilbolink's magical ring. The wizard Gandalf Grayhawk also attended the party and warned the Hobbits about the power of the ring. The ring has but a single master and only the most evil birder of all time, the Lord of the Wings, can truly possess it.
The three ventured together to the Council of San Pedro in Riverdell, where they joined with Legolas Goldfinch and Figwit Fitzbew. The newly formed fellowship decided they needed to journey to the land of Herb Mordor, where the ring could be destroyed once and for all.
Traveling through the thick Forest of Portal-gorn, where they needed to keep an eye out for the dangerous Mexican Chickadees and Red-faced Warblers that had been possessed by the evil wizard Soraman with the help of his toady, Grima Worm-eating Warbler, the Fellowship encountered the ancient and wise Indigo Enting, who joined them on their quest.
Nearing the end of the journey, the fellowship has been bolstered by the brave woman warrior Eowren . Will the fellowship succeed in throwing the ring into the fires of Mt. Chiricahua to save Middle-earth?
