I am pleased to announce that Chris Fachman will be hosting the Redemption National Tournament at his church in Knoxville, TN July 30 to August 1st.

Chris'  UPDATES BELOW:

************************************************************

  Type 2 Multiplayer 4 rounds

 done at 6pm includes lunch break

 Type 1 2player 10 rounds

* to play in type A you must be 12 or younger and have no national ranking points in any category

**The hotel will be the exact same as 3 years ago, just under different owner ship and a different hotel name:

RED ROOF INN & SUITES KNOXVILLE EAST

**Nearest Airport: McGhee Tyson - TYS

I currently have 10 rooms reserved under Redemption National Tournament.  The hotel is $59.99 a night, plus state taxes.  I'm getting the rooms somewhat tax exempt through my church record!  Also if you book a room and need to cancel for any reason, please do it before July 26th, so you don't lose any deposit or any money!

You are welcome to stay at the church for free on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday nights.  You will have to make alternate arrangements for Saturday night due to having to clean the church for Sunday morning.

*****important note!  John M. had other engagements this year and will unfortunately not be at Natioanls, so unless someone else has supplies we will not be able to run the Ironman category this year!*****

For anyone who did not go in 2012, let me give an unequivocal out-of-towner's thumbs up for Knoxville as a location and Chris as host.

So your going? Hmmmmm

Nats in TN was awesome it was one my earliest tournaments.  I really enjoyed it.  Chris did a great job running it.   Odds are that it may be out of my range a bit this year but if the right car pool situations arise I may be able to make it.

Two weeks before our child is due? Not going to chance it. Maybe next year guys. Congrats TN!

Westy, if you miss consecutive years having Nationals at your home church one year and the next year in the state you live (most of the year), I'm going to be very disappointed... 

I will be here. And I will come guns(Decks) loaded.

. Uh oh Ruth is coming for us :-)

Too far out for me
