Aww, come on...we won't bite
We are use to hearing of districts that won't allow their kids to come to our city to compete because of perceptions that are in good part due to media productions and even our own visitors authority marketing focus aimed at enticing adults to play hard and spend prolifically. There is a whole community of regular folks and families who live and even worship here (yes we have actual churches and weddings without Elvis) and even a growing technological community. Sure we are a city of 2 million with the same challenges you find in other large cities...even St. Louis where I feel less safe than here.For those of you with enlightened superintendents and principals, and planning to attend, expect another well run regional event and a great time in and outside of the venue. The level of competition is going to be outstanding (check out the list of many "top 20" teams signed up). If you can't join us, be sure to catch another webcast sponsored by Team 987!
