Hello everyone!
This is a reminder about the upcoming PA / District 3 tournament this year,
taking place the weekend of
June
7th and 8th. For anyone who has not seen the announcement, I
have attached a document with the details. Just to let everyone who is planning
on attending know, the block of rooms reserved for the tournament will be
released after May 6th. My apologies of this late notice, as I had recalled
them being released a bit later. However, plenty of rooms remain and as long as
there are rooms available from now and until the weekend of the tournament, you
will still get the discounted rate. Though to ensure you can get a room, the
earlier you book the better! It is my hope that you can all attend the
tournament. I am working hard to make this an exciting tournament for all
participants. I am sure all will have a great time! Let me know if you have
any questions.
Sincerely,
Joe Moore
Attachment
