T&T has 58 signed up and event #1 has 120 signed up. Registration closes Thursday at 5:00PM.
The novice school and event #2 are on May 18 & 19. Registration is open and 4 are signed up for the school (capped at 35) and 8 are signed up for event #2. We are looking for instructors for the school as well as a small crew of workers.
We are looking for chairs and co-chairs for most of our events this season. Ask anybody on the SAC if you have questions. We can train you.
The first MiDiv weekend is scheduled for April 13 & 14 in Muskogee, OK. Registration is open until April 11 at 2:00 PM.
Our $50.00 no work option (one per event) is proving popular based on the first two event weekend’s registrations. It is available when registration opens for each event and is first come first served.
