The 2001 Redemption Nationals will be held in King of Prussia, PA. The tentative dates are October 5th and 6th (Columbus Day Weekend). Here's why: a) There are several large play groups in the area. b) It is near (30 to 40 minutes) from a large airport (Philadelphia). c) It is in reasonable driving distance from some other play groups including Baltimore, Northern Virginia, Red Bank, NJ, Pittsburgh, etc... d) The WellSpring Christian Store in the King of Prussia Mall has graciously offered to host the event. King of Prussia Mall is the second largest mall in the country (Mall of America being the largest). We would be playing out in the mall in a roped off area. Wizards of the Coast held a major Pokemon tournament there last year and the mall management loved it. e) There are several places to eat (food court) and nicer places as well. f) There are several hotels in walking distance to the mall including Holiday Inn, Hampton Inn, and others. g) We have not held Nationals on the East Coast before.
