Dress for warm weather! There will be plenty of covered table space, but for those of us in better shape for the great outdoors, there will also be tables that can be enjoyed in the sun (optionally).

Address forthcoming, in Vienna, VA; this will happen in the lovely, large and sprawling yard and driveway space. The gaming area will be treated to remove / repel bugs prior to the event.

Please let us know any specific food allergies, restrictions, etc.

Thirty attendees is a HARD cap; if you want to attend, sign up!

More information forthcoming as I note errors or add more data. Please note, this is being put on by the NOVA Open in support of the NOVA Charitable Foundation; the two organizations are partners, but are not owned by the same individuals; no proceeds from or to the Foundation in any way impact or support the NOVA Open itself.

  1. This is getting more than just local in a hurry, with already 3 well-known players from the NE area planning on attending, a couple of southern / middle VA attendees, and now the word on the street is we may even have a certain popular podcaster driving his way up ...

  2. Are there still spots open for this weekend?
