It's that time of year again and I'm asking for money for two things:

1.  This year's tournament entry fee is $850 per team.  Based on the past few years, we will probably end up with about 20 players per team (by game time).  So this year's tournament fee per player is approximately $45.  But then of course there are other expenses so here is the breakdown.

2 teams @ $850 = $1700 / 40 players = $42.50/player - rounded up to $45
Web site/listserv expenses: hosting = $220/year + listserv = $180/year = $400 / 40 = $10

Per tournament player:
$ 45 - tournament fee
$ 10 - web site expenses
Total = $55

So all you guys who want to play this summer have to send me $55.  Please don't procrastinate since our club's bank account is empty.  To make the deadline I have to personally cover these expenses!

2.  Last year 32 guys chipped in $1750 for the Bruce Gevertz '83 Memorial Scholarship Fund.  Our listserv has grown since last year so I would like to set a goal of $2500 this year.   Since there are about 100 guys on our listserv, that amounts to a mere $25 per member.  It will take more work for you to write out the check and mail it than the value of the money so what are you waiting for?  Bruce's family and the College have been very appreciative of our past efforts and I would think that we want keep adding to the Fund since one day there will be a few grateful scholar athletes who will benefit from our efforts.
