We're gearing up for another season. Our funding is still up for grabs as Neuroworx has incurred a lot of financial stress with a move and remodel. We appreciate the efforts of Dale and Jan.

We had a little impromptu party at the Schlappi cabin. I posted a few pics of the event on Facebook. Jeff and Layne provided the Friday night dinner. Jason and Bret cooked up our breakfast. Mike and Rod provided the lunch. We had a great time and renewed our friendships.

Our tournament is coming together. We have commitments from Dallas, Denver, LA Lakers, Phoenix, LA Clippers, and Rancho. We need one more team to fill in the gap. Thanks to Jeff Burley and Salt Lake County Adaptive for hosting this tournament and providing all the transportation and food.

We're excited to move into our new practice facility at Copperview. Salt Lake County is being very good to us. Our practices officially begin Oct 20. We look forward to another successful season with a return trip to the Final Four.
