Once again, Tom Hudson did an excellent job as Tournament Director. Trophies were awarded to the winners and other prizes were awarded by random drawing. As the saying goes, "A good time was had by all."
Next year's tournament is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, December 13, 2014. Watch our tournaments page for details.
