NGSPA Great Plains Championship

The Great Plains Championship is cancelled due a serious illness with my wife. She has to go in for heart surgery the day before it starts and I cannot run the Great Plains because of that. Please get the word out. I just cannot be in two places at once. I hope everyone understands. Brooks Carmichael

I understand 67 were drawn. If they run 6 braces a day. It will take them 5 1/2 days to run. If they have time to run 7 braces a day, that will still take 5 days. Unbelievable. They still have the ASD and OAA to draw. And then there is the Derby. This Championship could take two weeks to run.
