Tournament Director Report
In Ralph’s absence, Dan Huffman stated he had aerial maps showing where the boat launch was at on Lake Chelan for August’s tournament. Dan, Lamar and Phil said they would be attending the Chelan tournament.
It was agreed to launch at 6:00 on Saturday and Sunday. Weigh-in will be 3:00 on Saturday and 12:00 on Sunday. Dan stated that since there were only 3 boats, the boat draw would occur at the boat launch. He also reported that we need to idle in and out of the launch area. Boaters have to be past the closest bridge at the end of the lake at weigh-in time. Also be aware of the police patrol as they watch the wake buoys.
Holly distributed plaques for the Sammamish tournament with weights.

For a smaller tournament (3-4) boats, Al mentioned may be able have it on Sequalishu electric motors only, 30-40 acre lake.
Lamar recommended that if we go to the Jamboree next year, we need to call in January to make reservations, 3-4 people need to call. There were problems getting camping this year.
It was also suggested to have a two day tournament but on two different lakes. However, since we only can have 6 tournaments a year, this type of tournament would take up two tournaments.
