During the executive board meeting last week we discussed raising the workers fee’s and the trailer towers fee. A proposal will be made under new business to change rule # 22. Due to the rising cost of fuel these changes are necessary to ensure we have proper staffing at each event.
A $10 launch fee will be charged at the first event on Candlewood. This fee will be collected at the check in table.
The new tents were ordered last week. We can expect delivery in the near future.
Tournament agendas will be available on our web site during the week leading up to each event. We would like to suggest that all contestants read and familiarize themselves with the agenda prior to tournament day. If there are any questions feel free to contact Al Guite either by phone or e-mail.
