2009 Hopes & Dreams Racquetball Tournament - October 15-18, 2009 - Formally known as the "Slaying the Beast" Tournament This tournament was a fundraiser to help raise money for Cancer Research in HOPES of finding a cure and to help fulfill DREAMS for those where research is too late. Warren Bailey and Michelle Bruchhauser are the driving force behind this event which usually draws the most participants of any of the Anchorage Racquetball tournaments.
