International Cup in Elizabeth City, NC June 5-7

[Flint54]

All paperwork is in to APBA and being finalized (waiting on signatures only), we have had just a wee bit of a delay due to having the course surveyed. The survey has been approved and the course will now be a "RECORD COURSE". Sanction should be approved within days/hours from our information and contact with APBA.

We would like to start getting a roll call going on this for planning and your attendance will make for a Great Weekend. Looking forward to having you come to the Harbor of Hospitality!
