Video
For the first time in our history, the world will be able to watch the NHPA world tournament set up process live via the Internet !!!! Beginning next Wednesday, there will be live video streaming from the arena. We plan to experiment with some other video arrangements, so stay tuned to www.horseshoepitching.com and check out the world tournament coverage page !
Typos
In the cover letter that was sent out with the printed schedules, there was a couple of typos that need to be corrected.
1. We will be voting on the 2016 world tournament location at this years convention. The 2015 world tournament has already been awarded to Topeka, KS.
2. State Officers/RD/Sanctioned League meetings will be held on Saturday the 19th, rather than the 26th.
I'm sure that anyone who noticed these already knew they were typos, but we wanted to set the official record straight.
Workers
Anyone who wishes to be a part of the set up process, you are welcome to show up at 7 am next Wednesday. Even more importantly, we already know we will be needing help to tear down the equipment, clean it, and load it into the NHPA trailer. That will happen at the end of the tournament on Saturday the 26th. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
