I'm trying to update the 2009 NEMO calendar of off-season events. It would help if you can send me your info in the format used in the calendar to kathiek -at - firstnemo - dot - org. Thanks!

[KathieK]

I'm hoping to get the new version of the NEMO Calendar of FIRST Off-season Events up on the NEMO website tomorrow morning. I've taken all the ones I can find in this forum. Can't find Tempest 'n' Tampa, CalGames, River Rage and Savage Soccer info. If you have it, please send it to me!
