The election garnered 77% of the voting membership and we thank you
for the overwhelming show of support.
We are all excited by the challenges that lie ahead of us as we work towards
our future.
The challenge before us is to develop the groundwork that will continue
to move SBTTC into the future.
A concerted effort over many years has brought SBTTC back into the
national spotlight.
The skills of Coach Seemiller and his protégés along with the support of
every volunteer, contributor and participant brought us to where we
are today. The SBTTC junior program and the prominence of the St. Joseph Valley Open and Highland
tournaments are key factors in this success - a mighty teamwork!!
It would be easy to sit back, kick up the heels, savor this success and say
job well done while watching the sun go down.
Somehow I don't think this group is going to let that happen!!

42nd Annual St. Joseph Valley Open held May 2006
On a beautiful spring morning, Coach Seemiller, like a kid at a candy store peeks through the doors of the Indiana University at South Bend gymnasium. Once inside he was greeted by 32 tables set up on a gym floor so shiny it looked like a reflecting pond.
The tournament had 166 entrants who competed in 23 different events over the two days of the tournament. Writeups, results and pictures from the tournament will be added over the next few days.
