Charles Chy heads his Pod with a ballot count of 8-2!
Excellent!
I hear that the Round Robin is going SUPER smoothly. I’m super impressed with what Mr. Alston set-up, though I had to cancel last minute on Wednesday. I really wanted to attend…but leave it to Whippany Park to cancel 24 hours before the tournament.
Nevermind that; Good luck and have fun!

We were saddened that we couldn’t attend the round robin but are looking forward to the tournament itself. While no one wanted a conflict of area tournaments, I am lucky that my kids have two great venues for competition this weekend.
