While final numbers aren’t in it’s clear that Glutton Mud Volleyball 2011 was the best ever.  We had 53 teams (one dropped out).  The weather was great and we had a great crew (as always).  Thanks to the court crew, the tournament crew, the food and drink crew, the pool crew, Audio Alk and his crew and all the miscellaneous people that did all the little things that made GMVB11 the best yet. A special thanks to the wives, girlfriends and kids who helped too.

Silent Auction: We raised $2806 for the Children’s Home (including $110 in outstanding debt).  That beat last year by just a few bucks.  Attached is a letter of appreciation from the Silent Auction staff.  Feel free to print it out and pass it along to anyone who donated an item or items for the Silent Auction.

Set up:  We’re in the final stages of preparations for Glutton Mud Volleyball 2011.  The courts have been tilled, water is flowing and we’re making mud as we speak.    Our big set-up day is Friday.  Everything needs to be done Friday so we need all the help we can get.

Silent Auction: We’re getting things in for the Silent Auction.  We need more items for the auction.  If at all possible please bring them to the Club Friday. Keep in mind we need to know what it is, who it’s from and it’s approximate value. Remember, 100% of the proceeds from the Auction go to the Evangelical Children’s Home in St. Louis.

Booze Basket:  We’re asking all members to bring a bottle of booze to contribute to the Booze Basket Raffle.

Tournament brackets:  This year we’ll have the brackets updated live on the internet.  You can get team stats, time schedules and both the winners and losers brackets.  Really Cool!  Click this link to view the GMVB tournament http://www.allprosoftware.net/GMVB/aptsnews.htm.  Be sure to check out the various options on the left.  Remember, this will be update throughout the day, so you can check it on your smartphones.
Note:  We have 54 teams playing in the tournament.  This means we probably won’t be having a money tournament.  We’re not saying that for sure, but we’ll decide in the afternoon when we see how the day is going.

Credit Cards:  We’re trying out a new credit card system this year.  We think we’ll be able to accept credit cards for T-shirts and Silent Auction purchases.  Since this is the first test, we suggest you bring along some cash just in case it doesn’t work.

Parking is limited:  Remember that parking is limited so we’re asking you to car pool if at all possible.

The 27th Annual Glutton Mud Volleyball Tournament is sold out this year.  We’ve taken all the teams we can handle.

Teams will be notified by Friday, August 5^th  about the time of their first game.

Please try to carpool and arrive early as parking will be tight.

Thanks for playing!

The 26^th Annual Glutton Mud Volleyball Tournament will take place on Saturday, August 7, 2010.   This is the first time we’re doing it on a Saturday instead of Sunday.  Each year we fine tune the event and try to make it run smoother.  We think we’ve got it down to a pretty good event after all these years.

We’re in the process of setting up a Square account to allow us to accept credit cards for T-shirts and Silent Auction purchases.  We’re not sure it’ll be operational so be sure to bring cash just in case.

One other change we’re making this year is that we will have both canned and draft beer.

The tournament will get underway at 8:30 am.  We have limited space so be sure to get your registration (and checks) in soon.  If you pay by July 25^th  you can save $20.  After July 25^th  the entry fee goes up to $120 per team.

We’re also doing the Early Pig Package again where you can save $41 and it includes your team entry 6 T-shirts, and raffle and food tickets… Total value $240….. ONLY $199.

Silent Auction
100% of everything we raise from the Silent Auction goes to the Evangelical Children’s Home of St. Louis.  We ask for donations of items to auction off.  If you know of someone who would donate something  that we could auction off we’d appreciate if you would print out one of the letters below and give it to whoever needs it.  Our tax exempt number is on the RAAC letter below (PDF).  Addresses of where to send items are on the letters.  Thanks for your help.
