Hello,

We are proud to announce the winner of the 2nd annual Col. Dwight McLemore
Scholarship for ISMAC. The winner is:

Eric Slyther

There were many great application this year, making this a difficult
decision for the Scholarship Committee. Congratulations Eric!

We are also happy to announce that Arms & Armor (http://www.armor.com/) has
agreed to once again provide the prizes for the rapier tournament this year.
The tournament is free to all ISMAC participants, so start honing you
fencing skills.

This year will feature an instructor's tournament immediately preceding the
participant tournament on Saturday night. The Special Presentations page
has been updated to include the list of participating instructors. We are
very excited about this premier opportunity and we are grateful to those who
have agreed to participate.

With three weeks left till ISMAC, many of the Master/Maestro classes are
only one or two participants away from being full. Please watch the
bulletin board to find out which classes are closed.
