The 2006 Georgia Games Championships are fast approaching. We would like to invite you to come fence with us at Kennesaw State University (just north of Atlanta) 6/9/06-6/11/06. More info can be found at Ask Fred http://askfred.net/Events/moreInfo.p...nament_id=2025

We are looking forward to a fun event with great directors, grounded strips for epee, a raised stage/strip for finals and two vendors for your pre-Nationals equipment needs. Additionally, all entrants receive a Georgia Games T-Shirt and qualify for the Southeast Sports Festival ( http://www.southeastsportsfestival.org ) no matter where you place.

We would love to see you at the Georgia Games and at the Southeast Sports Festival.

Just found out that since the following states do not have fencing (this year) in their state games, all can partisipate in the Georgia Games: South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee.
Hope to see you there
