Motown Hosts IGBO Mid-Year 2006

By Jim Cross—IGBO Mid-Year MMVI(2006) Secretary
Republished from October 2005 IGBO Newsletter

October 2005—Before you know it will be 2006 and time for the Mid-Year 2006 tournament in Detroit. We are looking forward to having a great crowd of diverse people enjoy our tournament. The capacity for our tournament will be 480 bowlers. We are going to bowl at a spacious 64 lane house with just two shifts. Everyone will be bowling the team event on Friday, and then will get to bowl singles and doubles on Saturday. We like to treat everyone equally and that is why we are going to offer Men’s and Women’s handicap pots in addition to the normal scratch pots and brackets. This will give even more chances to win at our tournament. Sunday will be reserved for the Scratch Masters tournament, but we are planning on having plenty of activities besides bowling. For those at our tournament that don’t bowl or don’t bowl well, we will have other events like a casino trip as well as Dart and Texas Hold’em tournaments. The three diamond hotel has 238 rooms available for us. For those of you that like a little adventure, Detroit has a variety of bars to suit anyone’s taste. Our committee looks forward to showing you a good time whether you are bowling or not. Detroit will be the place to be in November of 2006. See you then.

Thanks,
Jim Cross
