August 30th is the deadline for regular fees, after that it is TRIPLE fees.

LINK to NAC-A event schedule

Remember the general rule is plan to arrive the day BEFORE your first event and leave the day AFTER your last event.  Occasionally, if you have an early AM start you may be able to leave that evening but if you are flying don't risk it, you will not want to decide between participating in the finals bout vs. making your flight.

Hotel reservations made thru THS can be found here:

THS Hotel Reservations

Using THS for your hotel stay IS NOT a requirement.  Many fencers (parents) make their own reservations.
