Event Details:
ENTRY FEES:

Intermediate - $25
Mixed dbls net ONLY $40(so if you just compete in mixed)
non competitors players pack $30( with t-shirt and goodies)
LODGING:
If you can, make an arrangement with a NYFA member.  Otherwise, the ECFC is 
going to rent at least one house for this event house address is 21727 
47thrd(not street or ave) Queens Ny 11361 .It will be $40 per person per 
night. Please contact Ted or Jim or post on modified or Fb feeds if you are 
interested.  We will make every effort to make sure no one sleeps with austin
(the homeless guy) Friday is a demo presentation at Dumbo's band area.

**Important**: Please bring bedding as this is not a typical rental and is
very discounted. Sleeping bags and air beds are a GREAT idea as the beds are 
filling fast and they will go to anyone who fly's first, then people who do 
not mind sleeping together. $40 gets you: a place to lay your head, a place 
to cook wash clothes and I am working on the WiFi.

REGISTRATION:
Registration WILL take place at NYFA members houses, or the ECFC house.  More 
detaisl to follow shortly.  If you cannot make one of these places YOU NEED
