That was my suggestion. Just hard to put everything together with regards to sponsors, etc... Not that I am the sponsorship guru, but I learned that you have to have everything lined up by the end of Q3 for a tourney to be held the following year as sponsorship dollars are already committed by that time and there is a cutoff. Not saying everyone operates this way, but the big boys certainly do.

Can't tell you how many people I spoke to, but they all want to know the tourney history, # participants, # spectators, # sponsors, etc...

I think Shad/W need to make the call on all this stuff. I am more than happy to continue the sponsorship effort for the main charity event but anything beyond that may dilute someone's willingness to contribute as money is tight for everyone right now, even the big names in the industry...

Just my $0.02...
