      On the above matter, our thoughts go out to Danny Vasquez and members of his family laden Amigos team. We sincerely hope the young child responded to medication and doctor's care. Please keep us informed.

The second LV Fall Classic concluded November 4th at Desert Breeze Park
in the Spring Valley area of Las Vegas with all 19 teams in action for the
Championship and Consolation Brackets.
Special thanks go out to HOOTERS for sponsoring the beer area, SPI
Designs for the t-shirts, and Clark County Parks and Recreation for the
location of the tourney. Not to leave out, the umpires from Utah,
Washington, and California. Some are new members to NAFA, some are recent
additions, and some are veterans. I would also like to thank the concession
helpers which were mainly young kids for doing a great job. T- shirt sales
were not as well as expected as there was a possibility of $540 being added
to the prize fund, however $170 was all that was added to the fund. Also,
Janet Corum, our team massuese donated her time by offerring massages for a
donation to the Hitmen.
I hope everyone had a great time at the Fall Classic, please feel
free to email any comments to me so I may better next years' tourney.
