has school administration tried to work with the community for grants for such tournaments? i know that pittsburg hosts the kids sub-district each year and does so without any help from the chamber of commerce etc. however the chamber sponsors softball and baseball tournaments every year. problem is i know all the motels and restaurants are full, the night before the wrestling tournament. yet the baseball teams rarely stay in pittsburg, they usually go across the state line to joplin. i feel the wrestling community as a whole, seems to fail to tap into some of these resources that are there. it wouldn't be hard to prove to the chamber the money that is brought in for such an event. remember the bi-centennial buck, in salina? we all know that the community makes money off of wresting, it's time to take some back.
