WC in New York City; where?

[silver2e]

Does anyone have information on the venue for sabre WC in NYC in June? Will it take place in Grand Central as it did last year?

Interestingly, no fencing sites I looked at had the info. Even the usfencing site didn't say. But the NASDAQ site, of all things, confirmed it will be at Vanderbilt Hall in Grand Central Terminal again this year, from June 10-13.

That particular article gives dates in 2003, not 2004, and is dated June 13, 2003. I think we still don't know ...

When at the WC last year, I was told by several that in 2004 it would move to the Marriott Convention Hall,so hotel and venue would be in the same place, and the venue for the prelims more spacious. So will that be the case?? Things always seem to change

Oops. That's what I get for skimming the website instead of reading carefully. Sorry for the inaccurate info!

Just talked to some friends fron NYFC, told me the Marriott thing fell through, still no confirmation on where. Some talk of Hunter College but that is not at all firm. So it seems, its still up in the air.

USFA website finally has information. It is to be held at Hunter College.
