3. We have 9 tables now. We've returned two rental Andro's to Palo Alto and moved two Joola's to Gary's storage and replaced them with 5 brand new Butterfly Centrofold 25 Sky tables. Hopefully, this will at least ease the crowdedness a little bit.


4. For convenience, we will re-arrange and label the tables by numbers starting next week. Table 1, 2, and 3 will be used as round robin tables. 4 will be doubles table. 5 will be practice tables. 6, 7, 8, and 9 will be for open play.


5. Please read the label on the new tables when setting them up. Two people are required to set up the table for safety sake.
