are May 12th this year, Irish 9a start.
I've had lots of folks reach out already, so I thought this was in order.
$20 again, gotta pay for the porta rental somehow.
All athletes also get a lunch ticket for some sweet bbq goodness from 2 bears.
All 9 events, plus extras based on time.
Every class, All masters, liteweights <200 (please dont turn this thread into a 200vs190 debate).
I've got a bunch of newb females for Ali T to break in.
Sheaf standards can now accommodate Wadell, plus they're at the maximum legal width.
We had a blast kicking off the season last year, hoping to do the same this year, just with more folks.
There's talk of a man with large biceps and flowing locks making an appearance.
Pretty sure HAN is going to be on site.
I'll update the Roster as the names start rolling in.
All athletics, all awesome.
Pumped to see all your faces again!

Please count me in. I'll do either Masters or LW, whichever evens out the groups best for you.

well.....I was thinking about moving to a different park, thats kind of in a bowl. But in May...I feel like it would be kinda swampy.....so back to the giant, super level field in the ghetto.
Plus that field has those old post hole things, remember how easy it is to set up sheaf standards?
I'm thinking we'll probably have 40+ athletes this year.......fourth trig?
also.....I got another of your college throwing buddies coming, Don Gephardt?

Cool, will be great to see all the NAS guys throwing.  As for NAHA Mike is doing the Portland contest (I think you missed that one) on July 14.  That one was really fun.

Oh, and John.  I am going to do the Pgh NAS show on June 9th.  Ernie is hoping to do it as well.  It's a gold level so that might be a good Masters Nationals qualifier for you.

John can't help it that his hands are 2" thick and his fingers are short. If he could only hook grip a d-ring HG handle..........

these Awesome Guys will also be there doing what they do, they've got some great sups, plus they have a habit of bringing a legion of quality athletes with them wherever they go.
Joe also does a great job of making sure there's a plethora of pics and goodness for everyone to share after the event.

The only thing I'll be running for is the ice cream truck if one happens to come by. 
 
Here's the entry, I'm sure it will be on NAS eventually:
 
I grew up in Pgh and my sister in law lives a few miles from the venue.  They even have a family membership at that Y.  If my wife doesn't go I'm taking my oldest boy to hang out with his cousins and I would have room in the truck if you or some else wants to ride along.
