Due to the Corona Virus, JCAA has moved the date of its annual fluke tournament to Saturday, September 12th and the awards presentations to Friday, September 18th.
The good news for this year, among all of the bad news of the day, is that our Awards Presentations this year will be taking place at the Resorts Hotel Casino in Atlantic City. Hopefully, if all goes well with cornering this virus, we will be able to have the Awards Presentations as planned.
I would like to give a shout-out to Resorts Hotel Casino for giving us the opportunity to have our Awards Presentations in their hotel. They are excited to have us there and we are excited to be back there.
In addition to donating the use of their facility, Resorts will also be giving every attendee $10 in slot play or $20 in Match Play plus $10 in food credits. There will also be a reduced room rate for those wishing to stay over. They will also be donating a package for each of our 7 regions. Each package will contain a free overnight stay in their hotel, show tickets and $40 in food credits. In addition, they will also be taking an ad in our monthly newspaper.
Of course, all of this is dependent on whether or not the casinos can open and have large gatherings in September. I will keep everyone up to date and informed in future newspaper articles. In the meantime let’s all be careful and abide by and practice social distancing.
