Changes as of Sept. 26, 2019

We admit it: We underestimated Summit attendance this year. We had the program printed and everything. But we knew that with this year’s fabulous turnout we couldn’t accommodate everyone in three pitching rooms. So now we have five! Please ignore the room assignments found in your otherwise stylishly designed event program, and use the following to guide you during our speed-pitching session instead. It all starts at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 28. Thanks for understanding.
