Perfect weather for volleyball

Powder Springs’ Last Drop pub held its popular annual Beach Volleyball Tournament this weekend. Fifty-five young men and women registered in 10 two-person teams and seven five-person teams, all of them vying for some of the great prizes on, which included a snowboard and ski passes.

Powder Springs GM Emma Kirkland said the tournament draws a good crowd of people who want to have a good time playing one of their favourite sports in the sun. This year’s registration was larger than last year and could be a sign that this event has staying power. We certainly hope so.

Here are a few photos and a brief video (taken by Emma Kirkland) from the weekend events:
