Please call me if you have any questions, 208-681-7312. This is an outdoor event at the Idaho State Fair and a fun time. The weather is always great, so plan to come for some great armwrestling on Labor Day Weekend!

[Elaine Blik]

Just to let you know, I am working on more sponsorship for 3 money classes... I'll keep you up to date on that.

Also, notice the $45 for unlimited entries...so if you want to pull, now's your chance for a reduced rate!

Blackfoot has a limited number of motel rooms, so if you are coming and looking for a room, give me a call or PM for suggestions. The Super 8 and Best Western are in Blackfoot and fill up fast.

COME TO IDAHO ON SEPTEMBER 1ST!

[Elaine Blik]

Just to let you know... the Men's right and left arm CHAMPION open awards will be the heavy, sculptured armwrestlers sitting on the logs. Known as the "Logger A/W awards". The last time I won one of these was in 1994 at the nationals in Hartford. They are way cool...

The Women's and Master's divisions CHAMPIONS will receive the sculptured arms.

Hope to see some new faces here!

Congrats Elaine, what a turn out! Great job Russell!!!

[Elaine Blik]

Thanks, Chris! It was a busy, but fun tournament. It was great having the Starks there, as well as Team Wyoming... Russ was helpful in getting the crowd going as he and some others were throwing t-shirts out to the crowd. I thought that was fun.
