Ataque de Año Nuevo (roughly... "New Year's Attack" in Spanish)
Please note that the location for this month's tournament is in Washington, DC - not Silver Spring. After nearly 2 months of searching and receiving price quotes from various schools, community centers, hotels, etc. this is the only option that I can reasonably afford - so this is where we are going to be until the Spring.
The Marriott Wardman Park Hotel is located about 100 yards west of Connecticut Avenue on Woodley Road. Parking in the surrounding neighborhoods can sometimes be challenging due to the close proximity of the National Zoo, so please plan to either arrive early to find free parking, arrive whenever and pay for parking, or take the DC Metro Red Line to the Woodley Park / National Zoo station and a very short walk to the hotel.

"Ataque del Nuevo Ano"
Nuevo is masuculin, and requires an el, but the rule is de and el always go together.
Just thought this might help
Ps PM me for prizes if ya need them
This isn't to say that other people may not have a more preferred translation, just that I am satisfied with the one I received.
February's tournament will have a title either in Esperanto or Elvish (not really) specifically to avoid the issue of native speakers disagreeing.
