Wald,
I have updated this in our Word document as it was originally written but Carri thought tI• at the
wording had changed some because it's only allowed for tournament play at Dawson. I haven't
updated the website or any of our hard copy books yet because I wanted to make sure I had the
wording right first.
Thanks.
