It looks like me and Robm can co-host TN state tournament. Thing is we need a place to do this. If anyone has a church, does not have to be big, that we could host on a Satruday one day event then TN could have a state tournament. Please respond ASAP or pm me or robm with details. If I have to call the pastor to personally introduce myself I would be fine with that. Just let us know please.

idk if the father's house covenant church would be a good option or what.
but i do know that long hallow baptist church has an awesome size for their church but no resturants nearby

Forgive my ignorance as I have been out of the loop, but have you hosted other tourneys in Tennessee? They won't let you host a state tourney unless you've hosted locals and districts first. Father's house in Franklin is not an option. First of all, it's not big enough for a state tourney. secondly, they won' let you use it if you don't attend there. Where are you from? If you do host a tourney, I or Lord Stryfe on the boards can help supply product as we're both set up to do so. I definitely would be interested in attending a tournament assuming I am not on tour that weekend (which is why i am not hosting any to begin with. i tour a lot)

robm · « **Reply #3 on:** April 03, 2009, 03:47:14 PM »

I have been hosting in Kentucky for the past year and will be hosting a district and the kentucky state tourney. I think Rob Anderson will be open to the idea of us hosting if that means we can draw people in to playing and hosting again in TN. Any other question I would feel free to answer.

Touring for wha? I'd come I know a church should be easy to find in the bible belt

Like robm said, I am sure that Rob Anderson would let us host a tournament in TN. Unless you or Lord Stryfe would like to host the
TN state tournament. But any information that you can find on a church that would be open to us would be great. I would think option A would be a church where someone attends regularly and would be coming to TN state.

robm · « **Reply #6 on:** April 04, 2009, 10:56:48 AM »

Yeah were not trying to take the hosting away from someone else we are just trying to help and encourage you guys. I agree that it should be a church that someone attends.

robm · « **Reply #7 on:** April 09, 2009, 10:04:31 AM »

Anyone have a location?

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #8 on:** April 10, 2009, 02:10:50 AM »

last time? Of course i live 20 min from Chattanooga if you want to drive 5 hours this way rob

Mr.Hiatus · « **Reply #9 on:** April 10, 2009, 11:41:22 AM »

Yeah lets host TN state in GA!

Just kidding but we do need a spot asap TN guys. Once we get the spot we can send in the application.

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #10 on:** April 10, 2009, 09:11:33 PM »

no_im saying we i could find a spot in chattanooga to host at. Eric's parents house, YEA! But seriously i could find a place...

New Raven BR · « **Reply #11 on:** April 10, 2009, 09:14:48 PM »

can't be at my church cause i haven't told about the game and looking to possibly start a playgroup

Mr.Hiatus · « **Reply #12 on:** April 10, 2009, 09:54:41 PM »

Its up to Clift to find a spot...dun dun dun.

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #13 on:** April 11, 2009, 02:47:40 AM »

i don't go to father's house covenant church.
i'm baptist. and it wasn't state, it was a district

XeroSplash · « **Reply #15 on:** April 12, 2009, 02:28:50 PM »

We might be able to do it at my parents' church. It's a "cowboy" church, so it might be hard, but I can see what I can do.

What is a cowboy church?

Yay! Eric's getting married. Yay! Church for TN state.

EmJayBee83 · « **Reply #19 on:** April 12, 2009, 08:51:16 PM »

Congrats to Eric on being engaged.

Raven, if you look read the entirety of this thread, do you understand why Tennessee will not be awarded Nationals in the foreseeable future? Can we skip that whole discussion until TN has a stable playgroups, locations, etc.?

Rrulez, trying to find a church that would be open to hosting a Sunday tournament is going to be very hard. Since they are currently having trouble at finding any church at all...

Rrulez · « **Reply #37 on:** April 18, 2009, 01:13:48 PM »

I can ask my church since it doesnt meet on Sunday.

Rrulez, if you were granted permission by your church to use their facilities, let Mr. Hiatus and Robm know. Right now the main issue they have is finding a place to hold the tournament.

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #40 on:** April 18, 2009, 11:12:40 PM »

and dont forget that it takes 6 weeks or so for the whole process...is that correct? If so then were already looking at first week of june. Lets get rolling guys.can u guys even afford it. Lets say we have minimum 14 people, how much for tourney cost?

xCaLeBx · « **Reply #41 on:** April 18, 2009, 11:57:41 PM »

now in Ga I go to a big church called free-chapel would anybody consider having it there me and Steven (sw1gc or w.e) could prolly get in.

You wouldn't hold it on May 15-16, would you? I mean you are already pretty booked up with the Iowa/North Dakota/South Dakota/Montana/Wyoming State Tournaments you are hosting that day.
