I agree the prices in Duluth have went up, it's an easy commute from the cities and you can get by with one night sometimes. The $1200 one we couldn't touch.northwoods oldtimer wrote:DMom,
Ice in the metro is at a premium and that is why there is such a limit on invitational tournaments in the metro. Amen on the up front statement that kills many associtations budgets like you mentioned. By the time your registration fees roll in the "plum" tournaments are booked up.
Kudo's to the associations that allow for the team manager to collect the $200.00 or $225.00 gate fee. That is 1400.00 to 1575.00 respectively for an 8 team tournament which I woud bet it a nice chunk of change for any tournament. Associations charging $325.00...tends to be a bit greedy.
Wow have Duluth prices gone up....holy cow!
