We care because it was one of the premier events in the darting calendar! What a great event it was (especially from 1994 - 2001)!

I am excited to hear that she will be coming back....... :D

Here's the official news release which is posted above in my first post, you can download it below on MMDL letterhead.

*** I am looking for volunteer assistance with PR for the Witch City Open. Are there any PR professionals among MMDL members? Would like someone who can research all local media outlets, distribute the press release to them and if possible, do some phone follow up. Will also be sending this to Bulls Eye News, Dart World Magazine and We Love Darts Magazine, the latter two are UK publications. I found the DW email but no contact info for We Love Darts. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

If you are interested, please PM me or send an email to greggt@mmdl.org

Any advice from people with experience doing this would also be welcome.

No more ranking points and not the prize money they are used to now, but maybe some of them will come back for nostalgia's sake?
