CLUB UPDATES
Remember, because of our insurance, you cannot fence currently unless your USA Fencing dues are up to date.
The standard fall schedule kicks in this week as far as lessons and practice. No Saturday practice due to the Myrtle Beach Regional.
The last pair of new fall classes kick in:
September 14 Afterschool 6 week beginning classes start
September 14 Mon/Wed 6 week beginning evening foil class
INFORMATION ON UPCOMING EVENTS
Our first event will be on October 24th and will include Open Foil, Open Epee, and a Div III (D and under) Foil event. It is now up on askfred, and has caps of 28 fencers, so start getting signed up. Very few of our people are currently entered. There are only five people in the foil events, but the epee is filling quickly. A number of other clubs’ events (both sanctioned and unsanctioned) are starting to appear on askfred.
MYRTLE BEACH REGIONAL
The Lotus Myrtle Beach Regional is this next weekend. Here are all the people I see participating:
