The 2014 National Championship is just around the corner and so far it has been a thrilling experience preparing for the national tournament! We’ve got the golf venue, host hotel, and activities; and the applications are coming in! At the moment, it appears we will surpass the amount of players that participated in last year’s tournament but I want to blow that number out! How about joining us in St. Louis and making this the best event ever!!! Those of you that have responded to my EVITE, thank you! And, those of you that haven’t, please do so. We are in the process of preparing for a great event and we need your help! I want to thank all the early registrants! We will see you in ST. LOUIS!!!
