We are pleased to announce that this year's Indiana competition will be held in Fort Wayne on June 25-26th. Although this year it is being organized by different people than in the past, we will try to preserve the spirit of the Indiana competition from years past. We will have all WCA events, including an FMC mean. At the end of Sunday, we will have special awards for the best overall-ranking competitors, as in previous years. We will also be giving trophies to competitors who finish in the top 3 of each event.
