And a reminder: our renowned annual Veteran’s Tournament (for fencers 40 years old or older), the Fete de Lune, will be held this Saturday at NASA’s Gilruth center gym. We’ll be there from 8 to 5 pm, and anyone is welcome to come by and watch the fencing. If you have any questions about the sport or the club, there will be many people there happy to answer your questions. And you’ll be able to see the amazing prizes that the fencers are competing for, including hand-crafted necklaces for the women and a custom-crafted sword for the men. For veteran fencers, remember to sign up on AskFred.
Hello! Have you perhaps been seeing all the fencers at the Olympics? Our nation’s flag bearer Mariel Zagunis is a saber fencer, and MSNBC showed 18 year old Lee Kiefer fencing foil on Saturday. If that was your first time seeing fencing, or perhaps seeing it on TV reminded you that it’s something ‘you’ve always wanted to try,” come on down to our club! We have beginning foil lessons starting on Tuesdays and Thursdays in August–$75 gets you four weeks of introductory lessons plus equipment. All you need to try it are sneakers, long pants, and enthusiasm! While we recommend that people start with foil, if you’d like to learn more about Mariel Zagunis’ weapon, saber, join us on a Friday night–you’ll meet plenty of people more than happy to show you the basics.
