CFFA update for June 5

CFFA update for June 5
Our next beginner class will start tomorrow, June 6th, at 6:30 pm.
Ballet dress rehearsal tomorrow about 5 pm.  We will do quick reminder type rehearsals on Tuesday and Thursday at 7:30 pm.  Friday performances at 4 pm (arrive by 3:30 pm) and 7 pm (arrive by 6:30 pm).  We are in the first act and should be done fairly quickly.  Please let me know what performances you will be at and what you need  as far as uniform. (If you have not already).

No Camp Lejeune practice on Friday June 10th as we will be doing the ballet performance.
Practice Saturday about 10 am in Wilmington.

The

Powerade State Games registrations are up.  You can check askfred for
an approximate entry list.  However, the actual entry is done on
pag.ncsports.org under fencing. The event is only about 2 hours away in
Raleigh this year.  Events are split as Y-12, Women’s, and Men’s.  They
give awards within the adult events for cadet, junior, and vet; as well
as the
overall results.  You needed to be registered by the 4th as now the fees have gone up. 
Men’s sabre looks fairly big (B2), they could really use an infusion of our
fencers in Men’s foil (could end up as a B) and epee(small A1) and all of the women’s and Y-12 events. The event is June 18th.


This
summer, I would like to have sessions for the 12 and under set on
Tuesday and Thursday, starting at 6:30 pm.  This will give the fencers of
that age group a chance to keep up with things over the summer.  Once
my beginner class is finished next week, I can give you more hands
on instructions.    Costs would be $35 per month or the $5 per session
floor fee.

People
have been asking about T-shirts and jackets.  The last time we had
shirts done they ran $15 and are the design with the club logo on the
back on the fencer on the front.  The jackets have the club logo on the
back and were $45.  I don’t know if they would be that exact price as it
was a couple of years ago, but that should be a good approximate.  If
you might be interested, let me know what you want and the correct size
so we can get an order together.  So far very few people have contacted me.

pax vobiscum,
