Ok Guys and Gals,
To those members that have met my girlfriend Sabrina, you all know how driven and excitable she is. Well she's at it again! Sabrina has been at the last two national meets and has decided she wants to put a bid in for the 2015 DRTC National Meet. She has a few of the Division 1 members talked into THINKING about possibly putting together a bid for the 2015 DRTC Nationals. Here is the basics of the event.
Keep in mind that this is just a basic rundown of how the event will go. Their is a lot of potential side trips for all the closet wine aficionados and history buffs in the Hagerstown, MD area.
In order for her to get things rolling or not she needs a general idea of who would be up for a D1 nats.
We need a pretty solid 20-30 members interested by Dec. 30 to proceed
