| Who’s going to the Champagne Challenge at DCFC (MAS/SES) I was planning on attending this one this weekend, but none of my clubmates are going and I will feel all alone with all those big mean DCFC fencers so I was wondering who else might be going?

I always hear good things about the events, if not about the parking!

| The tournament is in August and the club is technically closed, so I don't expect a big turnout. There should be at least two A's there, though. Daniel Wheeler said he was coming, too.

| It's on my calender, but i don't know if I'll have the time or energy to make it down there... Plus, I'm still behind on my training schedule.
We just moved in to our new house, but haven't quite finished the process. There's just soooo much stuff left to do before we go to Germany... You never know just how much junk you have until you try to move...
I'm definitely planning to come down to Baltimore the next weekend though, for the Tractor Pull at BFC (which is also about 1 hour closer). |

| Maybe you don't care but I just wanted to let you know that I'm not going!
I planned to restart my season at the Kickoff open in September.
Have fun this week end, guys! |

| I have the Champagne Challenge on my calendar, but it's looking like I'll be helping a friend move on the 20th instead... so my next comp will be the BFC Tractor Pull on the 28th. |

| Sreckiki I was hoping we would actually get a chance to fence! IIRC we never have, although I think we had been in the same tourneys a time or two.
Thanks for mentioning me to your team mate Dave! I just like having someone to talk to at tourneys. I have actually seen her around at at lest one event, maybe at BFC. I remember her since I thought that was a really cool name to have as a fencer! Now fencing, Bob vs. DOOM. Almost does not seem fair really from a mind games point of view!
I am not going to make it to the Tractor pull I am afraid. My club is hosting VA's first Ratings Rally of the season so I will be coaching/refereeing during the Tractor Pull. That is yet another event I have never managed to make it to. Maybe next year... and maybe if they start testing weights and shims in MD!
Thanks for all the replys and info guys. If it is just me, Army and Ms. Doom at least I should finish in third!

| Okay, I've decided to go for the mixed epee on sunday in hopes of improving my E00, but few questions for anyone to answer:
1) How much is registration fee?
2) Where is it being held? |

| It's going to be held at DCFC. They should have driving instructions here.
