September 13 NJ Gold's Gym Tourney Update!!

[Tim Lewis]

Guys...I just talked to the gym owner regarding the September 13 Arm Wrestling Tournament in Whippany, NJ. Bill Trumper is no longer involved in running this event. I will be working with the owner at Gold's to run this tournament to make it a success. Details will be posted within 24 hours. The start time remains the same and we will probably leave the entry fees the same. However, we will be paying cash $ in every class now instead of trophies. We also are elmininating paying $ to the king of the hill champion and instead will spread that $ out of each of the classes to try to make the payouts more inticing. There is also likely to be a change (reduction) in the number of weight classes. I will post full details on facebook and on the northeast board ASAP! I am going to do my best to my this tournament a very attractive option for northeast pullers that don't want to make the 6-7 hour drive to Erie that day.
