I am writing this on Monday afternoon Feb. 16 - and the website shows all<br>
this information as to the Vasa Park tournament just concluded.<br>
To establish our own website, or link, or whatever it is, would seem to be<br>
unnecessary, both as to cost and effort.<br>
But what we SHOULD do is to be sure our members know of the website and how<br>
to gain access to it*; and we should make a real effort to ballyhoo our<br>
winners, new Life Masters, etc.<br>

*I am sure you can all figure out how to get this info better than can I -<br>
the most internet-challenged person on the board!<br>
But to save you figuring it out:<br>

calendar and results<br>
enter the date, place, type of the tournament<br>
