Guys, I can tell you that the Bi-Center staff and the Chamber of Commerce are taking your concerns seriously. We've had a meeting earlier this week with the Bi-Center staff to go over these issues. I also have been in contact with both the Bi-Center staff and the Chamber of Commerce several times since, and they have been forwarding me the emails they are receiving from you.

Some of you may have feel by the response that you have received from Mr. Bird that you are not being taken seriously. I can tell you from the discussions we have had that is not the case.

Currently I've been asked to provide the Chamber and Bi-Center with more information on the tournament and I'm working on putting that together now. I hope to have more information for you in the future.
