Tom- This looks to be a very interesting and I'm sure it will continue to grow. I hope I get the opportunity to participate next year (assuming this will be an annual event)!

Hi Zim!

Zim -

CQ is coming together GREAT! I didn't think we would be as far as we are today when we first began the mission. I'm grateful to the CQ Regional Tournament Directors and the CQ Board of Directors for stepping up to the plate. As a TEAM we have no limits to where we can go and what we can be!

Champions Quest will have TWO Series each calendar year.

The next Series - Champions Quest #2 will have two divisions - the singles division (like CQ #1) and a Team 8-Ball division. There are close to 50,000 Teams involved in various leagues throughout North America and CQ will develop a Tournament where the League Players can still be involved in their repsective leagues AND enjoy a Tournament that will pay BIG BUCKS!

We expect the Regions to grow in CQ #3 to include smaller US markets, as well as, some International Regions in China, Japan, Taipai, Phillipines, Korea, Mexico, France, the UK, Germany, Sweden, Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, etc.

I guess we'll have to employ someone who is fluent in those languages by then.

Zim,

We are waiting to get you back to the states to play. When is your ETA on coming home for good?

Eydie

I will be living in Illinois just before Christmas and start working early January at Scott AFB. I will be living about 20 minutes East of St. Louis in O'Fallon IL. I am looking forward to playing in some bigger tournaments/tours and joining an APA team league.
Eydie- Did you receive a letter from me yet? If not, you should be getting it any day now. Inclosed is the payment for the advertisement.
Thanks again,
Zim

 

[Bob Romano]

No problem Zim, your credit is good with me. It should be in any day. The brochure/directory is not out yet, should be by the end of the week. I will get it in the mail to you as soon as possible.

Eydie

 

[Zims Rack]

Sounds great Eydie! Can't wait to see it! This brochure is going to be available at the Mid West Expo and anywhere else? Did you get a lot of ads in it?
Thanks again,
Zim
