Special Announcement: I have contracted 2 buses to go from the Prairie Capitol Convention Center to the NHPA Hall of Fame.  The buses will leave at 7:00 A.M. and return to the Convention Center at 3:00 P.M. on July 30 and August 6.  The cost will be $30 per person.  The bus ride is 2 hours each way, which means they will be at the Hall of Fame 4 hours.  That should give those who want to pitch in Joe Faron's tournament time to pitch and view the Hall of Fame.  I would like very much to get this out as soon as possible to the WT participants and anyone else who wants to ride to the Hall of Fame.  Reservations can be by emailing me at ilshpa@aol.com or by mail at 100 Garvey Street Mechanicsburg, IL  62545 or they can call me at (217) 364-5563.
