Greetings All:<br><br>Several people have inquired if we will be doing anything to make the menu "topical" this year. I can proudly say, "No!" We will not be microwaving the food, or blasting it with radiation. We will continue to strive to bring you the freshest, healthiest and tastiest food we can. Aunt Vickie is once again coming from Texas to ensure that we provide sufficiently delicious desserts. We will also continue with the pledge we made last year to ensure that none of your tournament fees will be used to subsidize CAFOs -- all of our meats, eggs, and dairy products will be purchased either from local farmers, or vendors who guarantee that their products come from farmers committed to humane farming practices without the use of antibiotics and/or hormones. We also plan to emphasize more healthy mid-day snacking options than the pounds and pounds of candy we have given away in the past. <br>
<br>We look forward to seeing everyone in a couple of weeks, and hope that we have nice weather for your visit.<br><br>The Harvard tournament is the last opportunity you will have to pay me your NDT dues before they double. I will post an updated list of subscribers as soon as I receive it from Jim Pratt at the AFA.<br>
<br>Thanks,<br><br>Sherry<br><br><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"><meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 12"><meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 12"><link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CSherry%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"><link rel="themeData" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CSherry%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_themedata.thmx"><link rel="colorSchemeMapping" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CSherry%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_colorschememapping.xml"><style>
