Club Championships Lost Entries
2008.04.11 09:46
Due an error on my part, the on-line entry system for the Club
Championships was not, for a significant period of time, e-mailing
the entry information to the club e-mail account as it was supposed
to. And, unfortunately, only dinner ticket requests were recorded
in a separate file.
Entries submitted on, or after, April 3rd, 2008 and before,
approximately, 9:30 AM Friday, April 11th, 2008 are affected.
This means that all those entries must be resubmitted. The error
has now been corrected. So, if you submitted your entry on-line on
or after April 3rd and before 09:30 this morning, please resubmit
as quickly as possible, or contact Adam Radziminski or Scott Sibley
with the pertinent information.
My sincerest apologies to all, especially the organizers, who
are now going to be put under extra stress to get the doubles
matches scheduled for Monday.
