Wacha think about that idea ckinchen? Bring your own chairs and food, let a sponsor chip in if they want, and pay the entry money back to the winners. Would you host that kind of event?

Just simplify the whole thing. I can't imagine the headache of organizing it in the format of the previous years.

Rather than focus on the disappointment, I'd like to thank Casey, the SC helpers, and all the participants for the great tournaments in the past years and especially for all the donations that were able to be made to the great charities (Little Angels and St. Nicholas Center).

Good deeds, once done, are not undone.

I would like to do it if we can. My kids love the youth division and I really enjoy seeing all of our members and helping a good cause.

Yes, we did have the same problem and we were expecting not to have the same issue this year.

Too hard to get shirts, trophies, food, table and chairs when everyone waits until the last minute.

Not to mention all the extra shirts that are leftover each year because we have to guess at the amount needed and size.

Our main issue this year is since we set the date, every moderator and Casey's schedule has changed due to work and personal obligations that have unexpectedly occurred.

We had good intentions again this year and fell short of our goal...... We did not cancel to be ridiculed. It was a decision that was made after hours of phone conversations and hundreds of text messages.

We realize a few people have always volunteered their time to help and we appreciate it but our schedules changed over the last few weeks and we decided since we couldn't deliver the quality tournament our members were accustomed too, that our safe bet would be to back off.

This message wasn't aimed at you Cripley but just a general statement of how the decision was made and why.
