for the un-initiated, the Tri-Wing Encampment is comprised primarily of Delaware, Maryland and National Capitol wings.  It's got a pretty long history, and was used in 1998 as one of the two National Encampment locations.

staff application deadline is Feb 28th. if you want application info, send me an email or private message... I'll post the general application information when it's available.

my personal comment...  if it's not listed here, you probably shouldn't bring it, unless it serves a medical or religious purpose.  :)   Print out this list and use it as a checklist when you're packing, everybody forgets something, but it's harder when you're using a checklist.
