Don't forget, this is the final contest for this year's "Four Season's
Tour'ney." It's going to be interesting to see who is going to take top
honor's
in this year's Tour'ney. In the TARA Tour'ney, the contestants are competing
for the honor of emerging as the crowned "King or Queen" of the digital
modes.
The scores to achieve this are an aggregate of all their individual Tour'ney
credits derived from their scores from the four (4) TARA All Season
Contests.
Each contest is a separate entity and has its own awards. The results of
each
will be displayed on the Tara Results web page where you will find the
results
of all the contests for the Tour'ney year as they are run. The results so
far can be seen at: (_http://www.n2ty.org/seasons/tara_tourney_results.html_

For all of you that love to chase awards TARA has you covered! Back in 2004
TARA proudly introduced its ALL NEW "Four Season's Awards Program" which
consists of the TARA-PX and the TARA Grid Awards.
The TARA-PX Award is a full service award offering Mixed, RTTY and PSK
