Still waiting on the mailing labels ladies. I'm expecting them first thing this week and I'll get the entries in the mail the same day. The online deadline is April 2nd, but I'll take the mail in entry forms until April 4th. The competitors and applicants list is up to date except for about 4 entries I have on my desk. I'll have those updated in the next day or two. I have started a list of players looking for a partner, so let me know if you're looking via an email. I'm currently running our largest junior tournament of the year with over 300 applicants and 2 days of rain. Please forgive me if I haven't returned your email or phone call this past week. We have a great tournament planned I promise you. We've been meeting for several weeks and the volunteers have a great week planned.
