CAFF - or CAlifornia Foam Fest - is a new thing this year for So-Cal. This May 30th, 2005, (yes, it's a Monday, but it's Memorial Day, so you have school off) we're hosting a multi-clan war here in the south hills park area in Glendora, CA. We're meeting at about 10:30 am at the park (see maps below for directions.

The Nerfpark is in a group of hills in the southern portion of town. There's a small park with some picnic tables at it (which is where we're meeting) and then there's a bunch of hiking trails and stuff all throughout the place. We'll be taking one of these such trails for a (roughly) eight-minute walk to "Hobbitton".









There you go. As shown in the last pic, we're meeting on the picnic benches at the park mentioned above, which is at the end of the cul-de-sac (dead end) which is seen at the end of the street to the right of the star.

This has been advertised on Nerf HQ for a few weeks now (ever since things got up and running again) so as of right now, there are a total of eighteen people who are coming. We could always use some more.

Thanks!

wow, a war closer than irvine and farther away than my house. sounds fun, i'll check my calendar. who are we expecting?

[Richomundo]

Oh man, i'd really like to go to this one.
what bus would i take from the gold line station at sierra madre to get there?
It's foothill transit i believe, but the website doesn't help at all, its just a big jumble of poorly animated flash blobs and lines.
**EDIT***

i'm going, and my friend is going.

we'll see if maybe more people will go.

Black Knights:Falcon's clan; 9 members They're hosting it.
Narf: My so-cal clan that has somewhere between 8-15 members avaiable to come
some other individuals, and some guests...(i don't know who they are since they have all contacted falc directly i'm kinda in the dark)

if you are near the sierra madre goldline station, i could give you a ride over. have you been to any of our YANO wars? i don't recognize your name. anyway, and if you're not too out of the way i could probably give you a ride over.

[ShortShit]

I pmed you.

its really simple for me to get to the sierra madre station, but in case this falls through I'm still going to try to figure out that foothill transit bus.

Looks awesome, I'd like to go. That's two days after my birthday (23 yay!). I'll be deep in pre-production for my thesis film then but if I can I'll try to go.

Ugh, ALL of my primary guns are broken. Damn.

[Richomundo]

Ugh, ALL of my primary guns are broken. Damn.

well at least you aren't like me, and only have like 4 nf's.

[silent mercenary]

that sounds pretty cool I think that I may be able to come

[cxwq]

It sounds like this war will bridge the gap into summer nicely. I'm going to pass on YANO for April and start planning for Armageddon in June.

Not sure yet if I'll attend.

[ShortShit]

I'm going to pass on YANO for April and start planning for Armageddon in June.

gotcha- hey, what ever happened to Armageddon 2005 pics/vid uploads?

I think you mean Armageddon 2k4.

The video is here - seems it wasn't put in the gallery.

Steph shot pictures at one point but I haven't heard back from her or Spoon about those.

[ShortShit]

yup. ty.

[Spoon]

Oh right...the pictures. Yeah we have those. I'll send them to your gmail account. Uhh, sorry.

[VACC]

Holy shit......*poke*

[Ash]

Damn, haven't seen you in a while, Spoon. I thought you were dead... or in portugal. One or the other.

[Falcon]

Holy crap! I forgot to check this thread recently! This is great!

As for age range (I recall someone asked about that) The Black Knights are all Juniors in High School, NARF is seniors (I think) and some other various stuff. Anybody can come really, though if you're not yet in your teens, you might want to sit this one out...

I hope you guys can figure out how to set up your transit deal with the gold line and all that other stuff. Hope to see you all there!

Oh, and as of right now, the attendance list looks roughly like this:

Black Knights
Falcon
Pyro
Speed
Nightwing
Sputnik
Trojan
Apollo
Voodoo Assassin
Chronic

NARF
Baghead
Nemvirus

That better?

Oh, and may I assume from that comment that you are definetely coming?

Edited by Falcon, 07 April 2005 - 06:31 PM.

[ShortShit]

hehe yes. I fully intend to, and I may pool over some people from my school. I think only a few folks on the forums would remeber PMS, the santa monican Phychotic Monkey Squad that went up against the Horsemen back in like 2000/2001 for shits and giggles at an Armageddon or two. Funny days.... funny days...

Edited by ShortShit, 07 April 2005 - 06:46 PM.

[AnyaSeijin]

I think we're cleared to go. add...um...four more?

-Desert Storm

[Richomundo]

To richomundo add 1 guest, a junior in high school.

[Falcon]

So the count is to 29 (26 if the three tentative one's can't make it.)

Holy freaking crap...

I'm in awe... I'm not sure we can take more people. If you haven't already invited a friend, could I maybe request you don't? This is great, but pretty soon it could get out of hand...

Also:
Something not mentioned before, you will want to bring a H2H weapon of some sort (must have foam on the entire blade, though) as we will go at it in H2H duels for about 30-45 mins after lunch before resuming rounds. We prefer no H2H during the rounds themselves, but if you'd like to join in the fun for awhile after lunch, by all means, feel free to do so!

Usually about half of the people who say they're coming don't show.
