Hi Roger, Thanks for the comment - webmaster Dan was copied in the same April 15th email which I sent to you and approx 75 others. Unfortunately, the date was rather hurried due to UMA staff schedules, hopefully next ones will get more publicity. Thank you for your interest in Augusta area events!

Why wasn't this event pre advertised on this site? When there is a tournament anywhere in Maine, please let Dan DeLuca put it up so we can play in it if we can....roger morin
