Greetings from the great Pacific Northwest!
Spring is definitely in the air! After a rather mild winter, we are ready to tackle the last remaining weeks of league play and start our 2010 tournament schedule with Vancouver English Bay Cup. With the city of Vancouver, British Columbia coming off their high from the past two weeks, having hosted the 2010 Winter Olympic Games, the Vancouver English Bay Cup committee is finishing getting ready to host their 27th Annual tournament March 19-21.
In late spring, IGBO will host the 30th Anniversary tournament, May 26-31, 2010 in Columbus, Ohio. If you haven't made your hotel reservations or completed your entry, please do so! You can register and pay online all at the same time. The Columbus committee has plenty of surprises in store for us as well as their famous Committee Show that the regular COMIC committee puts on each year.
One week after Columbus is the Portland Rose Bowl. Their 27th Annual tournament will be held June 4-6, 2010. Tom Lutes Jr. and the rest of the Portland committee has been working hard on preparing another fun-filled weekend! Later in the year, we look forward to Seattle Espresso Cup tournament which will be held October 22-24, 2010.
