A 42 tournament is held each year at the reunion. The tournament starts after the noon meal ( about 1:15 or 1:30) and continues until a winner is determined. The tournament is double elimination and the strict rules of play are expected. Bids of "Nel-O", "Sevens", "Plunge", etc. are illegal and "table talk" is highly discouraged. The only exception is when a younger player wants to join a team, and the partner agrees, an older player, not entered in the tournament, may help the younger player.
There are prizes awarded for the first and second place teams. To support this tournament a fee of $10.00 per team is collected at sign up. This ensures the funds of the general assembly of the reunion are not used to support the tournament.
