Joining for nationals

Howdy-

I have had a few people ask me, so I thought I would just let everybody know. If you would like to travel to Cary, North Carolina with us for Nationals on Apr 16-20, you will have to pay your own way, but we can bundle it with the rest of the players going. We will be ordering tickets very soon.

Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks.

David
