2. The Board voted to move the 2008 1A State Softball and 1A and 2A State Baseball Championships from Wenatchee to Spokane. Franklin Field will be the site for the 1A State Softball Championships and Avista Stadium will be the site for the 1A and 2A State Baseball Championships. Both events are scheduled for Friday, May 23, and Saturday, May 24, 2008.
