Getting started slaloming in the Baltimore/D.C. area

[T.J. Welsh]

I've been really wanting to get into slaloming but I haven't been able to find any events. Looks like there have been some improptu events in the Baltimore/D.C./VA area but there I wasn't able to figure out from the info posted exactly where they were or I didn't find out about them in time.

My question is this:

1) Who do I talk to and/or where do I go to get started slaloming in this area?
2) If there is currently not a slalom scene in existence is there anyone on this forum that would be willing to help me start one?

Thanks in advance for any info.

Thanks for your response. Any help you could give me would be much appreciated as I don't know ANYTHING about slalom. I skate at the Landsdowne part pretty frequently and I'm on pretty good terms with the guys that run it so maybe we can set something up there. I'm pretty sure slaloms have been held there in the past.

I'll be on the lookout for John Dillon, but if you are willing to help me set up some slaloms in the Baltimore area, email me @ wideawakening@yahoo.com and we'll see what we can come up with. I'll start scouting some areas.
