Default Some questions about grass runways.

I will be spending the day at a warbird fly in in two weeks, and the club has a grass runway. I've landed off our runway on grass before, but not taken off. I know there will be more resistance to rolling on takeoff, and need to know of any other things to anticipate. Will a taildragger nose over if you hold some up elevator? I don't anticipate many problems, but I wanted to go in with some advice at least.
