Outta Town Productions (OTP) opened April on the beach in front of the Sonoran Sky Resort Condominium with typical flair by bringing over 200 traditional beach volleyball players and spectators back to Rocky Point after a one year hiatus from two decades of perennially successful tournaments along Sandy Beach…
