    2009-2010 NACs and Nationals

    Wow, I was excited enough about San Jose for the NAC D and Atlanta for Nationals, but Virginia Beach for the NAC F!!! I just booked our Oceanfront room

    Two 'drivable' DIV-I NACs in one season?

    Anyone heard anything on the March div2/3/vet? Somewhere that can double as a spring break vacation would be fantastic
    What's the "real" world again? I don't think I can see it from my window

    Sadly the fact that a place is a potential spring break destination means it would be priced out of the USFA budget, and a great many fencers aswell.
    Go to the well until the well is dry. When the well is dry find a new well.

    OK, I wonder which events will have the chair events he said as "Mr. Indignant"

    They want more chair fencers, how about listing the events so we can plan?

    God, this guy is worse since he started chair fencing. Well, I dont fence a chair and they don't fence each other. But you know, kind of like ex smokers are more militant when someone smokes where they shouldn't

    I've had brain surgery, what's your excuse?

    Chair events are usually attached to the DIV 2/3 event and the Decemeber Vet event!

    I think last season every NAC I chaired was at some time supposed to have the chair events but they were cancelled each time.

    Hurray, a NAC I can drive to from college, and drag my college kids down to watch.

    Now to convince the college conference not to schedule an event the same weekend...
    "Sir, didn't I parry"
    "You didn't take advantage of his blade enough, so no."

    (I guess i should have romanced it a bit more..."

    Yeah, those are the ones I have seen too. But for planning purposes, saving money, vacation days, scheduling trials it would help to have an idea, that's all.

    Yeah cause there isn't at least one NAC a year out there, regularly.
