| Form 990, Part V, Line 6b | Due to an oversight on our part we did not provide appropriate disclosures in our solicitations for contributions. We have ceased further solicitations and have filed registration statements with the states of Virginia and Maryland about the activity.

Fundraising was limited to providing support for a National tournament that is held on our area approximately once every nine years. |
