I said something along these linesast year or the year before.

THURSDAY NIGHT
7- D5 A girls final

FRIDAY
6- D5 AA boys
8- D5 AA girls

Saturday
Noon - D6 A boys
2- D6 A Girls
4- D5 A boys
6 D6 AA Girls
8- D6 AA boys

A full weekend of HS hoops championship ball. Would make mad money for the War Memorial, city, and districts.

Maybe move 5 A boys to Thursday night with the D5 girls so districts don't need to split any money for Saturday. First game Thursday at 6, second at 8. Move first game Saturday to 2

Makes more sense to have them at upj, st Francis any school that u don't need to change stuff around, if u really think the war memorial would make enough money on those games just to keep the lights on your crazy, my pap used to play in the war memorial with Len Chappell, the place was packed back then, it would b no where near that now

1/2 the Gate and 100% of the consessions to war memorial, 50/50 to districts. Everyone would win I bet.

The place wouldn't make that much from concessions with all the places to eat around, and I just don't see a lot of ppl gettin excited to play there or go there, unless u understand the basketball history there u wouldn't care to play there with 2 nice colleges close by

I've played and watched game at all 3 venues. It was really awesome playing at the War Memorial for a district title, and I'll just say that. It's different playing in an arena over a gym.
