[SBU Board] Winter 2016 Sectional Decision

[Tim White]

As you may recall, the Tournament Sites Committee has been exploring North Seattle College for subject sectional, with Vasa Park as backup.  North Seattle College is an outstanding venue for the Unit's NLM sectionals and we plan to return to it for these events.

For an open sectional at NSC, we found that we would have had to rent two rooms, and for some sessions perhaps even three, in order to provide enough play area.  The cost for this would have been well in excess of the rent we pay for Vasa Park.  Availability of parking on Friday is also problematic.

We then took a quick last look at Bothell as another alternative to NSC.  If we were to go to Bothell, it then would have had us there for four consecutive tournaments (July, Oct, Feb and May).  Thus, we decided to commit to Vasa Park, the original backup.

Ann R., please confirm with Susie that we are ON for the February 26-28, 2016 dates.

Patti, please advise Amy that we will NOT be at NSC on these dates.

Thanks,
Tim
