June 26, 2009toJune 28, 2009

Dear Squashers Please note that the squash tournament
has been moved back two weeks as the original dates clashed with UCSB graduation weekend and there were no hotels available in town. It is now June 26th-28th. All entries previously sent in will not be counted. A new entry form is attached, new flyers have been mailed out to all clubs, and new date labels for the existing entry forms too. Please let me know if you have any questions. I hope to see you here! Robert Graham

The 10th Not The Vegetable Squash Tournament

May 8-10, 2009

El Gancho Swim Fitness and Racquet Club, Santa Fe New Mexico

Not the Vegetable Entry Form – 2009

Dateline March 19th – Squashtalk has learned that on March 10th Kevin Klipstein, CEO of U. S. SQUASH, formally informed the leaders of the National Capital SRA, a 35-year member of the national association centered in the metropolitan Washington D. C. area, that it will no longer be recognized as a U. S. SQUASH district as a consequence of National Capital’s vote earlier this month to offer its 450 members the option of obtaining a local-only membership (as opposed to having to join U.S. SQUASH as well).
