| - brent lieser actually let me know they were getting something together a few weeks ago...
- i personally would like to give it try, the teams involved are good and fits in perfectly where we would be going to st cloud
- the other two options seem to be bemidji (where the competition is lesser and many of the teams are on our schedule or from our area) or not play in a tournament that weekend...
- again if we do get in this tourney i would like to see at least 15 commit to going instead of 10 to 12 which has happened at other non st cloud tourneys, if we can't get that amount then maybe we are better served by not going if we can't put out a full strength squad

| I think we should join this, but like Puck said we can't show up with only 9 or 10 players. I'm sure we wouldn't have to play the game on Friday, so it would be Saturday and Sunday and you would just have to stay one night. Should be some good teams, with good crowds possibly. And it's always good to remind teams down there that we are good.

| We are in this tourney. As soon as we receive a schedule for it, we will post it here. The towns are about 1/2 hour from St. Cloud, but I'm sure we can all pack in the Kelly Inn like a can of Kipper Snacks

| If the Birds are going to the Stearns County tournament why not try to stay around that area rather than going to St. Cloud?

| St. Cloud Friday night, TBD Saturday night.
We are in the Wahpeton tourney again. And, as Puck said, that's only 2 weekends where we are a bit further away so the team should expect most people to make it to both.
