I'm not aware of a web-site, but MacWatts and I will both be competing in them this coming Saturday, the 29th at 10:00 am in downtown Camp Verde, AZ. Love to see you there!
By the way, I'm the "Keys" he was talking about...it's a nickname I picked up by playing professional piano for about 30 years, give or take....

Welcome to the list MacWatts. I wish I could make it up there this weekend, but I won't be able to. Good luck Keys with competing in the games for the first time. I hope you have fun, and do great.
Slainte!

Was hoping to get there this weekend, but my lady is on call and the price of gas....
Have been in past years and it was fun, funky, small, but nicely so.
The concept of moving it to "Scottsdale North" (Sedona) is sad and scary for me. Kinda like the Clampetts being in Beverly Hills when I stray into town...

closest web site I could find. Unfortunately both Pathfinder and I have to work on Saturday. Maybe they should look at a 2 day event!
Ron, I feel ya, I grew up in Sedona before it became Scottsdale north..what a deference a few years makes. No more living on Schnebly hill in a tent because it's beautiful. Now you have to pay to park and look at rocks.

Darn! I was hoping to make the Verde Valley Games this Saturday - they're the only Arizona Games I haven't gone to, yet - but I've got an important software update installing this weekend which I have to monitor through mid-afternoon on Saturday. 
Oh, well...
Looks like the weather is going to be fantastic & I hope the Games are a great success!
Hopefully, I'll make it next year. And speaking of next year, I don't understand why you'd want to move the games from lovely, laid-back Camp Verde to can't-find-a-parking-spot Sedona???  That whole "vortex" thing might affect the athletic events...
