Varsity Men Duluth Tournament - Jan 18 & 19

Greetings,
Our best wishes go with HUrt Black as they sweep up Duluth this Sunday and Monday!!! Kick some serious northern butt!!! From the 9 athletes who are going to the tournament, we will need to have you bring cash/checks (made out to "Hopkins Ultimate") for $80.00. That covers your hotel room, tournament entry fee, coaches' per diem, and gas contribution for travel. You will still need to bring money for meals and personal expenses. Please bring your money to the departure point on Sunday Morning at 8:00 a.m. (Lingbergh Center).

We are planning on 4 drivers at this point, including the coaches in 1 car and 3 vehicles with athletes. Gas money ($40) will be given to each driver on Sunday morning.

PARENTS WHO WISH TO ATTEND:
We are again staying at the Comfort Suites Canal Park on Sunday night, January 18, since everyone last year liked this hotel so much. We have 2 athlete rooms and 1 coaches' room reserved. Each of these city-view rooms has 2 queen beds and a pull-out couch (can sleep up to 6). The hotel offers free deluxe continental breakfast, and has an indoor heated pool and hot tub to help rejuvenate your body and spirit on Sunday evening. I reserved 4 rooms. Any parents traveling to Duluth for the tournament who are interested in staying with the team, can call the hotel at 218-727-1378 and mention “Hopkins Ultimate 10% off.” The room price is $89/night ($102.28 including taxes).

SUMMARY:
  • Departure to Duluth: 8:00 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18 from Lindbergh Center parking lot.
  • Trip cost: $80.00 per athlete: cash or check payable to "Hopkins Ultimate." Must be paid at departure.
  • Hotel: Comfort Suites Canal Park -218-727-1378

Any questions, please feel free to call me at 612-508-6965.

Thanks,
John Dailey

This is the cost breakdown if you are wondering.

Hotel = 409.12
Gas = 120.00
Tourney = 150.00
Total = 679.12

Total divided by 9 players = 80.00

I know this is a little more then this trip has been in the past. But, the tourney raised their fee, and we have less players going then we expected.

Can't wait to get up there to frigid D-town.

Start focusing now on what we need to do to play championship ultimate
