I guess I will report on this issue. The Executive Board of the Kids division met this past Sunday in Salina. They had previously made the camp a requirement for the Southern Plains tourney. At the 2006 State Body meeting they were asked to reconsider that requirement.

I attended as a guest and they did consider removing the requirement. After a great deal of discussion a motion was made and second to rescind the ruling. The motion was defeated.

Anyone (Cadet and under) wanting to attend the Southern Plains tourney must attend the camp. One of the issues brought forth was the financial burden that the camp places on some. I would urge parents in this situation to contact Bob Phillips. He will try to insure that money is not a deciding factor.
