We're trying to wrangle up a team (or two) of occasional teachers for this year's tournament. You can register as an individual or as part of a six member team. $30 entry fee, includes a meal!

If we can get enough interested people, the Local will sponsor the entry fee for a team again this year.  This will be our third year sending a team of occasional teachers to the event.  There's good food and it's always a ton of fun.
