Once again this summer, UT-Chattanooga will host a weekend of open tournaments June 21-22.

After reviewing the proposals, I prefer the first one. Although it would be nice to have another way Thu, 01 May 2008 15:40:45 GMT Parrish, Dr. Ricky http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/juniorcollegequizbowl/message/82 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/juniorcollegequizbowl/message/82 For some reason, Brevard is starting to have its spring break during April, so early March works for us.

The final number is up for discussion; it will certainly depend on the number of CC SCTs held and may actually remain unknown until after the results so we Thu, 01 May 2008 14:56:28 GMT Yakut Kenutt http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/juniorcollegequizbowl/message/77 http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/juniorcollegequizbowl/message/77 You know, they have pills for that cerebral flatulence now, Glenn.

Would community colleges, in general, like the idea of having high school quiz bowl tournaments run on their campus?
