Susan,
It sounds like a great tournament and I’d like my daughter to participate but Team East tournament takes place during the same weekend and it is a big event as well. I think by choosing these dates, you will really reduce the participation from tri-state area. Any chance that you will move the dates?

Diane,
Unfortunately, no. I expect about 400-500 players this year and we had to plan this event a full year in advance to get $59 room rate with free Internet and hot breakfast buffet. We will also have laptops, other prizes and college scholarships for the girls.
Best wishes,
Susan Polgar
