Flights:  Separate events will be held in three flights: A (2000+);  B (0-2000) and C (Non-Life Masters with 0-500 pts.). Eligibility for each flight is determined by your masterpoint holding on June 1, 2008. 

NOTE: The Flight A event will be one day only (two sessions on Saturday). The Flight B and C events will be two days -- two qualifying sessions on Saturday and two final sessions on Sunday. 

Entry fees:  $12 per person per session

ACBL prizes:  The top two pairs in each flight will win cash travel awards to play in the national finals in Houston TX in March. The third-place pair will also qualify for the national finals, but will not receive a travel award.

Sunday Pairs:  Two one-session Stratified Pair events on Sunday are sectional-rated and open to all. You do not have to have played in the NAP event to enter.
