We’re so close to this years Bench Minor Tourney that you can almost touch it.
Actually you can. We’re at Bicentennial Plaza right now putting up the boards for the court. If you’re already in town, stop on by and give us a hand. Think of it this way, you’ll get to be the first ones in the pile for pickup when we’re done.
