This year's GrappleFest will feature a wide variety of martial arts competitions for ALL conceivable forms of Grappling: Submission Grappling, Jiu-Jitsu, Folkstyle Wrestling, Judo, Scottish Highland Wrestling, Sambo, Cuff'N'Stuff (MAYBE Sumo, Backhold Wrestling too), etc. There will also be something for those who prefer striking!
International GrappleFest 2005 will host:

"TAP FACTOR" 1st Annual Championships Tournament:
===========================================
Pure Grappling across a wide spectrum of styles. The division Champions will be awarded with their well-earned titles, trophy, Pro divisions recieve a belt, and a big surprise(sorry folks, I want to keep THIS part under wraps until the day of.)

"The GAUNTLET": Martial Artist Team Olympics
=====================================
Unlike anything you've ever seen! Compete and win prizes! TEAM competition only, your 5 member team will go against teams representing other schools, states, and countries in a series of grueling events. Challenging your team across the board in a variety of areas; speed, strength, stamina, skill, teamwork, fighting spirit,...you get the picture.

Putting your skills to the test in a way that's,....Outside the Box! Tug-Of-War, Climbing Wall, 4-Way Joust, Obstacle Course, and many more. FREE to competitors. Can your team "Run the Gauntlet?"

"CHAMPION'S BANQUET"
====================
There will also be a banquet Saturday night after the competition is over. All Champion's will have reserved seats at the head of the long-table. Wine, Dine, and make Merry.... Following the banquet there will be more live music performances at the main pavilion.
This is optional and is a separate cost.

Cabins and accommodations for +500!
==============================
There will be cabins available for those wishing to come early. Competitors get first choice! Come early Friday, weigh-in first, pig out, and then retire to your cabin to rest up for Saturday's challenges. And again for Sunday's line-up of events.

We all know what happens when we go to competitions as a team. Four guys get an $70 hotel room, split it 4 ways, then fight over who gets the bed and the floor. At the GrappleFest 2005 site everyone gets their own bed for around $15($12 or $18 depending on the cabins available)! No spooning or nightmare scenes from "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles".

PLUS MUCH, MUCH MORE,......
