As winter rushes away and spring comes forth with a symphony of color . . .
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Cast off the shackles of propriety and answer
the call of mischief, mayhem, merry making and madcap frivolity. Join in the
silliness and fun that is March Madness.
There will be a FOOL'S TOURNEY for both heavy and rapier and of course all
are expected to show an appropriate level of foolishness in the lists.
