Update on June 2025 Sectional

June 6, 7, and 8, (Friday, Saturday and Sunday,) are the dates for the Nearly Summer Sectional. The Board had attempted to secure a venue in the northern part of the Unit, but the costs were prohibitive and the Board has decided to return to the Shriners facility for this tournament. To address some issues and concerns about this location, the Board is securing a Security Officer to safeguard the parking lot during the tournament, and on Friday there will be a police officer directing traffic. Those taking a left-hand turn on Harwin will use the East exit with the assistance of the officer, while those taking a right-hand turn on Harwin will use the West exit. These measures will be very helpful in managing the congestion that may occur on Friday of the tournament. Tournament Chairs Karen Nussbaum and Gary Kerr are already working hard to make this an enjoyable and successful event. Mark your calendars and plan to attend!
