20th Annual Tatunka Sevens Tournament Wrap Up

Another great Tatunka Sevens Tournament has come and gone!  Despite the gale-force winds, runaway tents and shattered goal posts, all who were there can once again attest to a grand event.  In the end, the club made over $2,800 - one of our best tournament fundraisers in a long time!

I would like to thank all the teams who attended:

We're already making plans for next year (June 8th, 2013), so keep your calendars marked and we'll see you on the pitch!

Next up is the Annual General Meeting (AGM) - coming up on Sunday, June 15, 2012.  Remember - lots of big things happening here - perhaps one of the more important AGMs that we've had in many years.  We will be electing new board members, including a new President, modifying the bylaws, increasing dues, setting budgets for the upcoming season, etc.  Please plan on attending!
