Upcoming events

The next meeting of the Northwest Chapter of SABR will take place from noon until 5 p.m. at the Seminar Room of the main library at Seattle Pacific University in Seattle. Unfortunately our featured outside speaker, Mel Stottlemyre, had to cancel. We will still feature some excellent presentations by Chapter members. The meeting is open to the public and we invite anyone interested in SABR and baseball to attend.
