Just a heads up, folks. A slight change to the normal lottery opening date. The SPX Lottery will be taking place in March this year. Expect further details in mid to late February. Until then, enjoy this pic that none of us deserves. https://ift.tt/2uIaX2p

Just a heads up as a few folks have asked, there won’t be any announcements as far as registration for #SPX2020 until, at the very earliest, early to mid-February. Until then, please enjoy this picture of puppies. https://ift.tt/39Quii1
