I got invited to my first joust in April of 1999 by a couple of friends who insisted that I had to try it. Well, my son Nathan (who was almost 11yrs. old) and I went to a spring jousting clinic and we both had a great time. That was all it took to hook us, and we began jousting with the Amateur Jousting Club of Maryland the following weekend. We both started in the same class, as does everyone, and have been "fiercely" competing against each other ever since. In 2002, we both earned our way into the 2nd or Amateur class about 2 weeks apart-- Nathan was the first to move up. We have been privileged to be among the original founders of the Pennsylvania Jousting Club and hope to continue to see the sport grow in our home state.
